I have a 1987 bayliner capri. Do they make a camper top for it? Or on that is a close fit?

Thanks

Re: camper top for 87 capri?

If you're wanting to know if you can run to the local Bayliner dealer and pick one up the answer is no. Don't know if they were made or not but after 23 years certainly would be a tad difficult to find.
Thinking your best bet would be to do some shopping around with the local canvas guys and start some pricing that way. Maybe even e-bay could be an option.
Pretty sure it will need to be a custom job.
But, you could always call Bayliner Customer Service and see what they suggest: 360-435-8957.
Let us know the outcome.

back then there was a camper canvas option. It looks like this:

It leaves you very short on headroom though. I think it was mainly for sleeping and thats it. As for getting one now, maybe check ebay. I thought about selling mine but i think i will keep it and pass it on with the boat.

I was fortunate enough to get the camper top when I bought my 87 BL and the funny thing is the people were like, if you do not want this stuff we will haul it to the dump, I am glad I took it, a little cleaning and a sunny day to stretch it out helps protect the interior when it is sitting.

I do not think you will be able to locate a setup new for the year.

Good luck.
