Don't know yet...the kids are getting older and we all want to go farther away. Looking a express sport fish, I will look real hard this winter when I have more time
yes the lights in the T-Top are custom, the whole top is custom.
I am very impressed! That came out great as did the rest of the boat!
Can you tell me what brand of lights those are or what they came from? I was thinking about doing somthing similar on my pilot house. There is also a thread on my local fishing forum from a guy who was looking to do that on his pilot house so I want to pass that on. Any help would be appreciated!

Oh yea, bump for a beautiful boat!
J&J marine in Taunton MA did the top. The T-Top lights are usually used in larger sport fish hard tops but they were able to install them in my regulator. There are a few more cool things that they did on the t-top that Regulator doesn't offer, the cross section in the windshield area are moved up and out of the line of sight. The spreader lights are flush mounted with a switch that work when the batteries are on or off (makes getting off the boat at night very easy) The pipes and rockett launcher are powder-coated. They do real quality work and it shows 4 years later. Never seen a top like it on another Regulator.

Thanks for the info! Great boat and great work by J&J marine. The next owners are going to have one hell of a nice boat!
Did I see you trolling along Gayhead beach this past Friday? If so, the boat looked great. I was driving the solid flag blue 26FS.
Yes, I was there fishing the Derby! Had a great day fishing. Split time between Nomans and Devils Bridge. Fishing was good and weather was great. Saturday was a different story. Now the boat is on her trailer for the winter
