    jdrago,
                  Thanks for your service, I am still getting the sand out of my teeth myself.  I hope you are out of the box for awhile, to enjoy your boat and catch some fish.

                  Best wishes, cheers, T.

Like pete, been there many times, can you put up a picture of the panel?? I just bought one last trip down there for a member on here for his 215 DC.

They still have several gauge and switch panels, from late 90's up, I just don't know what the Explorer panel looks like  :scratch:

They do have replacement explorer 225 panels. I had to dig through a bunch of panels, but they are there.

There is really no such thing as an OEM hard Top, because AS as you know has been out of business for several years, you would have to fairly stumble across one, as there are no numbers for you to research like other parts.  The marineconnection does have a huge selection of hard tops, but you would have to go there with some measurements, it's not that hard to modify one that is close, I did on my last Chris Craft Cuddy, mainly you are concerned with overall length of the mounting feet, and width of the feet, the height and levelness can be modified.  They told me on average, a hard top is around $1200-1500 without the top (frame only), you can either buy a top with it, or have one madeThey do have decals for the mid 90's and up AS boats
