I love the folding arch on the 360.

Makes transporting so much easier.  It is pretty heavy and tall.  I wish our old 342 did it.

    Very nice boat. I agree that the folding arch is a nice feature.

    A folding arch definitely comes in handy!

    Yes it is made by SEI.

    About $10k for a hardtop for a 330/340/360 or 370ex (all the same part).

    Wish my 280 had this feature. Would open up a few other winter storage options for me.

    Remove the cover plates on the arch sides and remove the 2 each nuts, lock washers and regular washers on each side. You can lower it with 2 strong adults, but I HIGHLY recommend 3-4 adults to lower it. Place some folded shipping blankets or pillows at the stern for the arch to rest on. It’s HEAVY!!

    There’s a wire harness on the starboard side of the arch. You might have to disconnect it, there should be a connector under the cover plate. I had enough slack and didn’t have to disconnect it.

    I recommend some old fenders to rest the arch on. Worked great for shipping my 330!
