When you say "roof" do you mean the cabin top , or a hard top , or bimini? I would say the answer to any of them would be , no. I'm pretty sure any of those would be custom but Danny at High tide has or can get just about anything for these old boats.

I don't know where you can get a factory replacement maybe try to find one on a salvage boat somewhere. I know where you can have a custom one made.

I had a local guy patch my roof (the floor to the flybridge). Cut out a piece of fiberglass, replaced the core, and fiberglassed over it. Painted it and can't tell the difference. Solid as new. In mine (a 1986) the roof to the flybridge does not appear to be cored. That would be an easier project, I believe, for a competent fiberglass technician.

I've spent some bucks on fiberglass work on mine as well as work on an old 22 Whaler Revenge. I have been around the block on some of it and paid a steep tuition for the lessons learned. Fiberglass work is not rocket science; the biggest problem is getting someone that will show up and get the job done, in my experience. Hard to find good help.
