Hello fellow boaters, my husband and I  purchased a 1978 36' Gibson late last year and we love it!!  We have always loved being on the river but we have always enjoyed it in a much smaller boat.  We still have our 14' flat bottom but love our Gibson.  We have 2 adult daughters and our first grand child is on the way so I think our boat will now be equipped with a playpen too:-).  The question I have is this: we have 2 air conditioner units on our boat and I have seen tables with the cup holders on the corners that you can place over the top of these units to get better use of them but I don't know where you can purchase them.  If anyone can give me any information on this I would greatly appreciate it.  I am in Wisconsin if that helps.  Thank you so much for your time & have a great day!

Contact gibson with the model AC and they might be able to fix you up since they offer this as an option on there boats. Or you can make some nice tables with pvc pipe and smoked plexiglass. I made 2 for my old nautaline and they worked out just fine. even made a set for my fathers nautaline(that was 5 years ago) and they still look god and work just fine. Cost to build each was about $50.00 which is cheaper than the tops you are looking for and you wont need to pull up the ac to mount the base plate like the ones gibson uses.

Please try this site . . . http://www.fiberglassconceptsinc.com/

I did not see exactly what you described however they do have AC covers that are like a table. They make a lot of fiberglass assessories for houseboats.

Thank you birdman this is exactly what I was looking for but they are pretty pricey aren't they?  I think I will go with Millertyme's idea.  Thanks to both of you, I appreciate the help:-)
