I'm interested in that as well. My 250 didn't come with a pop top.

Russ, I think he might be looking for one of these.

If you click on the more info tab it says the 22 mk 3 and the 250 are a similar design and the picture is for reference only. They both use the same support bar so a call to CD might answer the question if it would fit or not.

Thats it Scott thanks. By the way I grew up on the island. Lived in Elmont and had a summer place (parents) in Rocky Point. Still have the giant orange jelly fish?

Yeah the big orange/red jelly's are still around but usually in the early spring. Haven't seen any lately. Still to cold for swimming anyway. Been a very cool wet spring around here.

Out of curiosity I called Catalina tech support and asked if the C22 and C250 pop top covers were the same and he said they were similar but no, not the same. I'm wondering if anyone has written down the dimensions of the pop top cover so that one could be made?

I think if you want to have one made your best bet would be a local canvas shop. They usually will come to your boat and take measurements and you can show them the photo of it so they understand what you want. Also a slim chance that someone might have one and is looking to sell it.

Kemp,
You might call Catalina Direct and get their measurements.
The one pictured on their website is the C250, so the C22 might be the guy out-of-luck.
It sure would be easier than having one made.

Indeed it would be easier. I'll ask them. Interestingly the tech support guy also suggested that I could take an old sheet and use that as a template for a new one. That would be an interesting approach and I think would work. I had a sail cover made this spring by Ameriseam and they did a good job. I see they have Pop-Tops but for Hunters. I might give them a call and ask about the 250 as well.

I am going to cut up a harbor freight tarp, they are only 3 bucks or free. With a three month season might even work. I think it could be glued together.

I doubt that CD would have the measurements. They had them made by a supplier and ony sold them. Probably the same supplier that made them for Catalina. Possible that CD can give you the name and number of the supplier. They would have the measurements and possibly might be willing to make one or give you the measurements. Sounds like CD is just getting rid of old stock that doesn't move anymore.
