Author Topic:   T-Top on a Montauk 190

hockeycrew posted 03-29-2009 06:02 PM ET (US)
Has anyone installed a T-Top on the 190 Montauk? I was checking out a nice rig made by Atlantic Towers on a friends 19ft Outrage and it looked great. He was able to install it himself in about 3 hours. Very sturdy and it is screwed right into the deck. If so please post a picture and where you bought it. Thanks

Here's a pic of my 2008. It's not one of the store bought ones though, it's a custom done by S&S Marine in Norfolk Virginia.
Good luck!

That's a fine looking T-top by the way. I like the way the forward and aft side supports have a curve in them.
I came very close to buying a 190 Montauk for its classic style and huge interior but we needed more seating for family visits and a lower bow for offloading groups for beachcombing so we wound up with this 200 Dauntless.

The factory T top that came on it is similar in design to yours.
I still wonder if I should have gotten the 190 Montauk! I love the classic lines.

Oldschool that T-top looks great on your Montauk. Did you install it yourself? Did you use the boat before getting the T-top? I was wondering if the handling changed with the T-top on.
Boatdryver that is a very nice looking factory top on your Dauntless. What size motor do you have?

No hockeycrew, I had a custom T-Top shop do it all (S&S Marine). I lost a little top end speed after the top was installed. I put a set of Lenco tabs on it before I drove it for the first time with the Top. Basically I wasted $500.00 as it rides sweet with the top.
Sweet rig boatdryver!!
