410 Convertible

Half Tower

9.5 Half Tower and Tuna Tower

The half tower and tuna tower consists of a laminated ﬁberglass

top mounted to a welded aluminum frame that is bolted to the

deck. They can be equipped with spreader lights, courtesy

lights and rod holders. The top and frame is designed to accom-

modate radio and GPS antennas, radar antennas and navigation

lights. It could also be equipped with optional outriggers.

Towers are equipped with an operational upper control station

and a sunshade for the upper station.

Electronics antennas must be mounted to the hard top between

the front and rear legs. Antennas mounted on tuna towers

may require extensions if they are mounted on the hard top.

There is a molded in radar antenna mount on the forward part

of the hard top.

Do not mount any antennas or equipment to the brow area

forward of the front legs. The hard top frame is not designed

to support the weight of accessories in this area and could be

damaged. The rear legs are used as the wire chase for lights

and antennas mounted to the hard top.

The warranty for the half tower or tuna tower will be void if

the structure is modiﬁed in any way or if heavy accessories

like life rafts are mounted to the top. Additionally, if items like

radar antennas, spotlights and other accessories are mounted in

the wrong location, the warranty could be void. If you intend

to add equipment or make modiﬁcations to the half tower or

tuna tower, you should contact Albemarle Customer Service to

make sure the equipment you would like to add or the intended

modiﬁcation will not void the warranty on the ﬁberglass top or

the aluminum structure.

Because the aluminum frames vary slightly, the side curtains,

front clear connector and drop curtain are custom made to each

boat at the factory. To install the curtains, slide the front clear

connector into the slide track at the front of the top and snap

it to the bridge beginning with the center snaps. The clear

connector will have to be stretched just enough to pull out the

wrinkles to reach the snaps on the bridge.

Once the clear connector is completely installed, the side

curtains can be put on. Slide the side curtains into the slide

tracks on each side of the top and attach them to the zippers

on the front connector. Snap the curtains to the bridge sides

beginning with the forward snaps. The side curtains will have

to be stretched slightly to pull out the wrinkles and reach the

snaps.

If you have an optional drop curtain, slide it into the slide track

on the back of the hard top and attach it to the rear of the side

curtains. Snap the drop curtain to the bridge.

Note: Cold weather can make the clear vinyl material

on the curtains stiff and difﬁcult to stretch to the

snaps. This can be particularly difﬁcult with new

canvas that has been stored off the boat. Laying

the curtains in the sun for 30 minutes during the

heat of the day will make installing them much

easier in cold whether.
