1987 Four Winns Horizon 190 Convertible Top

[mxzeatr]

Does anyone have the framework of one that they are looking to sell? Or a complete one they are looking to sell?

My boat has the hardware on the w/s but no top, not sure if there was ever one.

Here are some pics of my boat to share and say hi with!

Nice boat!! It should scoot too with that Max on it.
The original tops are very hard to find, once they get seperated from the boat, they are gone....I was lucky enough to have mine still with the boat. A bimini is an option, I prefer the convertable top myself.

I just re-propped it this year too. It runs really well for its age thats for sure. Top end is somewhere around 48mph with 2 people and a full tank of fuel, cruises very nice and is easy on fuel in the mid 30's. But nothing beats the look of the boat and the sound of that Max! Very very happy with it, and intend on keeping it for a very long time. I would like to re-power it with a 175hp or so 4stroke outboard, but that will be a few years down the road $$ wise.

I did buy a bimini top last year (universal one) and did not like anywhere of the mounting options available on the boat. It just didn't 'look' right to me. There are a lot of these Horizon's for sale in the area, and not one owner will split up thier Convertable top! LOL I've even offered decent money for a couple hoping they'd bite, but it is a decent selling feature so I don't blame them.

Thanks for the compliments!

I'll keep a lookout for ya. There's a boat-donation yard close to me.http://www.laniermarine.com/pre_owned_list.asp They have at least a thousand boats on thier property. I take a walk through there once a month or so just to see whats new. I'll keep an eye out for a top. Look under project boats......Some intresting stuff.....But do NOT believe what the ad says until you see it yourself!!!!!!!

What a neat place to go walk around! I'd be doing the same thing were there one by me! Thanks for keeping an eye out, I've always got mine open, maybe someday I'll find something, but who knows. I've thought about having one made, but not sure it'd be worth the coin right now....
