I just completed the installation of my Dolphin Pro2 T Top on my 1996 19’ Mako center console. This video has been incredibly helpful! If Dolphin or Origin Wake Board wants my independent review, then please reply and we can discuss details and compensation. Thanks.
great video; only one suggestion - Ii've seen other vids where they place the legs first (like you did) but they then mark and drill the holes for the legs to get screwed into the deck next. they then screw in the 8 lag screws into the deck to hold down the legs, but only screw them down about 3/4 the way down, so that you can still move it all while installing the roof.. THEN you do all the rest, do the upper legs and the roof and tighten all of that...THEN you come back to the leg feet and do the final tightening on those 4 screws, per leg.
Was you worried about drilling and put screws in the bottom of boat hitting wires, cables, fuel tank fill line….. ???? I have a dolphin top like yours, had it for a couple of years, but I’m afraid of hitting something with the screws, bc like yours I cant see under the floor.?? Any suggestions??
big hole in deck in center, like 200mm min. arm in feel around. You can use this access to properly through bolt it and not just screw it in. Finish hole up with a proper inspection hatch
Great video. Is it possible to move the t -top roof forward so it has more over hang / shade? Are the 3 roof bows equally to allow this? I would like to mount the same t-top over the seat instead of the console due to style of console and would need the extra shade.

Call boat manufacturer
What size boat did you install it on?
When towing with this how fast can you go?
What do you use to cut the spacers?
