ABSTRACT:
A detachable tee-top includes a framework having base portions fastened to two opposed sides of a center console of a boat and consisting of elongated tubes having fasteners fastened to the center console by threaded fasteners. The framework includes a further elongated tube for each of the elongated tubes making up the base portions with each of the further elongated tubes being sized to be slidably receivable within the upwardly facing opening of a respective one of the base portion elongated tubes. Thus, the further elongated tubes or pipes may easily be removed from the base portion elongated tubes when it is desired to remove the detachable tee-top from the associated vessel. The tee-top also includes a horizontally oriented support frame for a cover. Flexible straps attached to this support frame are stretched downwardly and attached to the base portions of the device to support the frame in high wind conditions. The framework is disclosed in two alternative configurations of elongated tubes. The support frame includes a single centrally disposed horizontal brace or, in a second larger embodiment, a second centrally disposed horizontal brace provided parallel to the first-mentioned horizontal brace. One end of the cover is fastened at one end of the support frame and the cover may be extended over the remainder of the support frame whereupon straps may be stretched and extended to a desired configuration to hold the cover in its assembled configuration and permit flow of air under the cover.
