Good product
by David from Longwood, Florida on August 21, 2017
This shade works nicely, and appears to be high quality material. The package did take almost a full week to get, and would like to have other options for colors. Either way, I would recommend this product because you can operate the boat at higher speeds with the shade up.

Good sun shade
by Kevin from Marietta, Georgia on July 05, 2017
Easy to use. Fabric is lightweight but does the job by providing sun shade. Plenty of stretch on the fabric. One of the straps was missing a metal grommet which iBoats quickly remedied.

EXCELLENT TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL SHADE
by David from Palm BAY, Florida on July 26, 2016
Living and boating in FLorida, sun is an issue especially with taking several family members for a leisure boat ride. I have a t-top on a 22ft bay boat (Nautic Star) Everyone on board was pleased with the shade factor and was able to run the boat at medium speed with no issues. The ability to move one side down helped on trip back as sun was on one side of boat. Definitely recommend for those who need some additional shade.

Very disappointed
by a Customer from Claremore, Oklahoma on August 02, 2017
When I ordered the item, they had an expected ship date of July 20th. It is now Aug 2nd, and I still have not received it. I called in to enquire about the order last week and was on hold for 3 hours, and no one ever picked up the phone... no customer service. I finally called back this week and acted like I wanted to make an order. I finally spoke to a live person. I found out the order won't ship for ten more days.... almost a month after it should have. I won't be buying anything else from them.

by Kathryn from Birmingham, Alabama on July 20, 2015
Love the t-top shade cover! Installed very easy and offers all the extra shade we want. Also, like the zipper case for storage.

Q:
I think this is what I've been looking for to cover back of Striper 2601. Could you please suggest size ?
A:
It depends on your application. At normal size, it is 5' wide and 4' long, and it can stretch out to 7' wide and 6' long.


Q:
Do these shades come in different colors?
A:
No it comes in a black color.


Q:
What are poles made of?
A:
Poles are made of stainless steel.


Q:
My T-Top is 4' wide and is 6' to stern, what size do you recommend?
A:
Width cannot be changed on any size, so the only other factor is length. 12015 stretches to 6 feet long. If you want a little more give then 12016 stretches to 7 feet long.


Q:
Have 282 Grady White Sailfish will 5'x6' work on my boat ?
A:
This will stretch to those specs. So it will depend on what you need. You need to verify the measurements.


Q:
I have a 1999 235 cc sea-pro what size do i need?
A:
We don't have original information to match up by your boat, as it is a universal product that can match to several boats. You will need to measure. Just know that at normal size, it is 5' wide and 4' long, and it can stretch out to 7' wide and 6' long. Longest length to stretch is 8 feet in what is listed on our site: http://www.iboats.com/T-Top-Boat-Shade-Kit/dm/view_id.1271413


Q:
CAN PRIVACY SIDES BE ADDED TO IT MADE OF THE SAME CANVAS OR ISLING GLASS?
A:
There are no modification available.


Q:
What do i use for poles. I plan to use it in the bow area of a 256 Sea Fox so would add pole holders into bow facing forward at 15 degrees.?
A:
It is supplied with poles to be able to install it. The poles need to be able to install into rod holders. Bow shouldn't need use of the poles though since it's much more narrow at the front. You just use the straps to wrap around cleats and/or bow rails.


Q:
Rods holding fiberglass t top are only 3 ft wide even though top is 5 ft, It would be 5 ft wide at bow and 7.5 to 6 ft long but I am worried about how to attached it t top bars vs fiberglass?
A:
If we are understanding correctly, your t-top poles are made of fiberglass and not metal. The entire system is made of straps, so you will need to have places near the top of the T-top to pull these straps through. Some vessels require installing a cross bar of some type. If you are worried about the straps rubbing up against fiberglass then you will need to get some kind of cover straps. Finally the resilience fabric allows you to really stretch it as you need it.


Q:
Which T-top boat shade is recommended for a 2015 Grady White 208 with a Bimini.?
A:
It is not an application we can match up by boat. You will need to take some measurements and see what size you will need for your vessel.


Q:
Does this come with the poles and straps? Thanks?
A:
Yes. It comes with the poles and straps.


Q:
The length from the edge of my hard top to the edge of the stern pole holder is 78". So what is recommended, the 5 foot or the 6 foot?
A:
You will want this one part number 12017 because it stretches up to 8 feet.
