We are looking at a 250WB 2002 and considering making and offer on her. What has been done to stabilize the post that supports the pop top? Without a solid support it appears to be a severe head injury waiting to happen. I am sure since 2002 there has been a simple and effective solution. Thanks! <font color="purple"></font id="purple">

Bob, I'm not sure I understand the problem, Bob. My pop top has a stainless steel post on either side of the top that holds it securely. They pivot at the aft end of the top and drop down when you lift it. The loose end is then securely tucked in the corner formed by the drain channel surrounding the top.
