Greetings ~ I have a 2001 260DA and we're interested in possibly adding a radar arch. I've been researching and found almost nothing. Lots of Aluminum options it seems, but no fiberglass or OEM options.

The 2003 260DA had a fiberglass arch option, and from what I can tell there are no (noticeable) design changes. The arch used on the 2003 260DA would be perfect, but I don't know how to go about a)finding one, b)finding someone to fabricate one and c)what something like that might cost.

Photos of the '03 attached, and one of my '01 cockpit.

Any advice would be great. Thanks.

You are correct, an arch from a newer 260DA (up to 2004) would fit any 260DA, back to 1999. However, this is an in-house made part by Sea Ray and making just one arch is not very cost effective. That's if they even still have the molds, which they very well may not. If you come across something aftermarket, let me know - I'd eventually like to add an arch, too.
 
if you find the right woodworker have a mold made and the right glass tech.$$$
