Default Various Arches

So I have a question:

Is the fiberglass arch an option that was available on all sizes of cruisers or did it start on the 2700+?

I typically only notice the fiberglass arch on the boats of that size and larger, I'm not sure I've seen it on a 2400 SCR. I have a radar arch on mine which is largely unnecessary, but I do love the factory look of the fiberglass arches.

I have not seen an arch on any year for the 2400 SCR from the factory.

Only if you don't have or want radar.

haha well true. I'm just not sure I'll find myself in scenarios where a radar will be needed for me. The previous owner installed it because it was an easy way for him to attach bikes for cruising marina's and local towns. it's a pretty slick set up.

If you don't expect to find yourself travelling at night or in the fog (or get accidentally caught in either) then radar is not necessary. We do both.

oh yeah that makes sense. I've never really liked traveling at night. I'd need to set up better lights if I were to do that much out here as there are a lot of logs in some of the passages in Puget Sound.
