Fabrication · Bayliner hardtops

Bayliner hardtops and flybridge extensions

A hardtop for your Bayliner that is lighter, stronger and better built than the original. Made in the original molds, sized to your cockpit, installed at our La Conner yard or shipped to yours.

The original molds

The Bayliner molds, redesigned

Your hardtop is laid up in the original Bayliner molds, which we bought from Boater’s Discount and redesigned.

The original tops were cored with plywood. Yours has a foam core and no wood, so it doesn’t rot, warp or decay.

Resin infusion

Converted to infusion

We converted the molds to resin infusion with a foam core.

Infusion made the tops lighter, stronger and better built. One production top went from 400 lb to 124 lb.

Fitted or shipped

Shipped to you, or installed by us

Ready 45 days from order. We build in regular production runs.

Install it yourself, or have us install it professionally at ESI South in La Conner. Installation is the right time for a haul-out: the bottom and the free 18-point inspection are done while the boat is out of the water.

Shipped crated anywhere in the country; call (360) 610-7577 for a shipping quote.

Twelve months, in writing, on the hardtop and our workmanship. It transfers with the boat. Read the warranty.

Options: wiring for lights and for solar panels, built in.

“The appearance takes nothing away from the lines of the boat, and the detailing and fabrication is first class.”

Free for every customer

A complimentary 18-point inspection

An expert technician tests the boat’s systems and writes up every point as Excellent, Good, Monitor, Attention or Critical — a written report telling you what is sound, what to keep an eye on, and what has to be dealt with before it goes back in the water. Free with every job.
