I am planning to splash the 310 next week and I am a little worried about how the boat will handle underway with the new hardtop. I wonder if the boat will be rocking  to much  underway because the new weight.  Any input will be appreciate. Thx

    You will loose a little speed but the weight will make it ride better. Plow right thru the chop

    @oscar1..... it will still handle like a sports car. I have been on several 310s without the hard top (they had the radar arch) and owned a 2013 EC310 with the factory hard top. BTW congratulations on the custom install you did it was superb! My 310 handled beautifully - one of the most stable and predictable boats I have ever been on. If it lost any speed due to the hard top I did not notice as it would hit 50 mph (twin 350 Mags) which was good enough for me and too hard-on gas to do for long. LOL.
