RNR-Marine has completed its patent applications for 3 versions of its Flats-Top for flats boats. We have 3 versions: 2 that mount to the poling platform, and 1 that goes on the console. Each design provides:

• shade for two people seated at the console,
• ability to stand at wheel to sight for fish,
• use of console mounted rod holders,
• stability at high speed (75mph),
• easy removed (pull a couple of quick release pins),
• 316 stainless steel tubing and fittings.

We can't produce all 3, so we need to know what works for you! Please check it out, and take our Flats-Top Survey for a $25 discount coupon (usable anytime in the future) at http://Flats-Top.com

We did some fitting of our 2nd prototype to a Hell's Bay Guide 18, with good feedback.

Looks like we'll have 3 heights (level with the poling platform, +4" & +8") for the poling-platform-mounted Flats-Top.

The console-mounted Flats-Top will be offer in short (60") and tall (76") height and can be shortened from there for custom heights.

Both will be 30" long x 36" wide coverage, and remove in <30 seconds.

Here's our prototype platform-mounted Flats-Top on a Hell's Bay Guide 18 ...

Rear and Front Mounts mount through poling platform deck.
Set Screws on Rear Mounts can be replaced with quick-release pins for easy removability.

It looks like we'll have 2 heights (Short and Tall). This prototype's height is halfway between these 2 heights. The Hell's Bay Guide 18 and Hewes 16 have a fairly low poling platform (33" height on the Guide 18) and will require a Tall Flats-Top. Boats with taller platforms like the Hewes 18 and Action Craft will use a Short Flats-Top (little or no rise built-in).

We installed our 1st Flats-Top on a client's boat last week, a 2005 Hewes Redfisher 16.

You can easily walk around the Flats-Top, or lean on it to fish off the back deck of your flats boat!

We just announced our new Gear Loft, custom fit to the T-Topless and Montauk-T-Topless to provide overhead storage for up to 6 PFDs (life preservers), towels, throwable cushions and other light gear, freeing up floor space or other valuable storage lockers for dry goods like tackle, food or coolers ...
