SCtiger2019 Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 I purchased a used boat last year and the string on the T-top is dry rotted and starting to break. Has anyone here restrung their own? How hard is it / any pointers? Is para cord a bad idea or what is the best string to use? If anyone knows where to find a good instructive video please let me know. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyB Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 I did mine. I’m not sure I did it exactly right. I put several zip ties around to start. One thing to do is make sure you want the rope on top or underneath the canvas. I put minis back on top. My canvas came with some braided cord so I do not know about the para cord. Like you I looked around for information to find out it is hard to find a video on the subject. If you top is still stung take good pics.

THE OUTLAW Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Start in the center and use self locking half hitch's , all the way around . If you dont , you will have to keep solid pressure on the line throughout the whole top . Use the zip ties first ! 🇺🇸🏴☠️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
