Generally, T-tops are constructed from a high-quality marine aluminum extrusion which is anodized for appearance longevity. The anodized aluminum extrusion requires a specific welding machine to assemble, usually a welding machine with pulse and square wave capacity. Marine extrusion is the lightest and most durable material for T-top construction.

Interference-colored anodized aluminum parts exhibit a distinctive quality: their color varies when viewed from different angles. [ 24 ] [ better source needed ] The interference coloring involves a 3-step process: sulfuric acid anodizing, electrochemical modification of the anodic pore, and metal (tin) deposition.
It has a fractional sloop rig, with gold-colored anodized aluminum spars and a loose-footed mainsail. The hull features a spooned plumb stem, a near-vertical transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a retractable centerboard that is raised with stainless steel straps. Both the rudder and centerboard are made from foam-cored ...
In 1954 George Garcia, owner of Falls City Flying Service, introduced the ‘Marinette’ which was an aluminum houseboat initially built as a twin-hulled cruiser. Choosing to use an aluminum-magnesium alloy, whereas previous attempts at an aluminum watercraft had mainly involved small row boats made of a copper-aluminum alloy , the same ...
