Hey All,

I'm a stand-up jetskier and my skis go with me everywhere. We're a 1 vehicle family and love to camp. I can't tow a tent trailer because of the double ski trailer, so a Deli seems to suite my needs:

1) Good for daily driving
2) Can tow my skis
3) Can be a camper (easier than tent camping)

So far I see MANY options for them and having a hard time figuring out what they come with and what are user mods.

My first big question is whether or not a pop-top camper version is stock of a user conversion?

I think I saw some user photos from "delisimo" that showed exactly what I'm after....inside it's got storage space and "living space" and a pop-top for sleeping.....pics here:

Anyways....hello everybody....cya on the forums!

Cheers

Thanks Loki.....I certainly figured the interior was custom....but I think I could handle that stuff. It's cutting a huge hole in the roof that I'd find a bit daunting ;-)

Any idea if the pop tops can be slept in? or just for extra head room? The pics didn't show a bed up top, but I saw side rails that could possibly support a platform that you could toss a mattress on.

TIA

Cheers

There is a pop-top Delica for sale that I checked out and it's well worth the asking price of 10k.

I think tugboat is the seller, not sure. It's all white with a white poptop and beige interior.
