I have a 1985 Revenge 22. I currently have the stand up canvas over the cockpit. I would like to replace the canvas cover with a hard top. Has anyone tried doing this to a Revenge and if so how do you like it.

Bellj -
I looked at some old Whaler lit, and couldn't find a hardtop model. It may look ok or it may look like _hit, it depends on how much money you want to spend on it and how much experience you've got in doing a large mod.
_If_it_was_my_decision, I'd check some sources for a prefab hardtop and then have a good fabrication shop make the attaching vertical hardware (ss or alum...probably alum)
It will change your cg and trailering weight.
I don't think you'd want to go to the extreme of having some sort of solid glass with frames build, as this is where some serious bucks could get eaten up.
Best (and good luck) - Don
