For more than a decade, yacht owners in Japan have enjoyed one of the most practical and elegant innovations on the water. Now, this same solution is making its way to the United States, ready to change the way American boaters experience life aboard their flybridge yachts. It’s called the TOMA-TOP, and it is unlike anything else on the market.
At its core, the TOMA-TOP is a retractable hardtop windshield system engineered specifically for flybridge yachts up to 65 feet. Anyone who has spent time on a flybridge knows the delicate balance between open-air freedom and practical protection. Sun glare, sudden squalls, biting wind, and relentless UV exposure can quickly turn a pleasant day into a challenging one. Traditional canvas and vinyl enclosures offer some shelter, but they lack durability, are awkward to handle, and rarely complement the yacht’s lines. The TOMA-TOP takes a different approach and changes the game completely.
Precision Engineering Meets Innovative Design
Designed and manufactured in Japan by Marubishi Company, the TOMA-TOP has been proven across hundreds of installations. Built with marine-grade engineering and a focus on simplicity, it allows the helmsman or guests to raise or lower the retractable windshield at the touch of a button. In just seconds, a flybridge can be transformed from an open-air lounge into a protected command center, complete with a solid windshield and hardtop overhead.
Unlike soft enclosures, the TOMA-TOP integrates seamlessly into a yacht’s design. There’s no flapping canvas, no clouded vinyl, no interruption of sightlines. Instead, the TOMA-TOP looks and feels like it was meant to be there from the very beginning.
The Only Retractable Hardtop Windshield for Flybridge Yachts
For U.S. yacht owners and brokers, this represents a rare opportunity to bring something truly distinctive to market. The TOMA-TOP arrives at a moment when owners are putting greater emphasis on comfort, versatility, and family-friendly design. Buyers want products that extend the boating season and make long hours on board more enjoyable. They want durability over disposable canvas, and they want solutions that elevate, rather than compromise, the look of their yachts. The TOMA-TOP checks every box.
There’s also a safety story here. By reducing wind fatigue and shielding against spray and rain, the TOMA-TOP helps skippers stay focused at the helm. Guests are more comfortable, more relaxed, and more likely to remain on the flybridge, even on longer runs. That means fewer trips up and down the companionway, and more shared moments in the yacht’s best viewing space.
Installation is straightforward, and product support comes from an established company committed to quality and to growing its presence in the American market. With boating’s continued focus on innovation and owner experience, the TOMA-TOP couldn’t be arriving at a better time.
Japanese Engineering, American Lifestyle
At its heart, the TOMA-TOP is about bringing Japanese precision engineering, and more than a decade of real-world success, to American waters. It solves a problem every flybridge owner knows well, while simultaneously enhancing both the style and the value of the yacht. For owners, it means more enjoyment from your investment. For brokers, it’s a compelling solution to offer clients looking for something new.
After ten years of success in Japan, the TOMA-TOP is finally ready to deliver the same level of comfort, protection, and versatility to U.S. boaters.
