Welcome to iboats.

..... I will tell you that windshield are the HARDEST parts to find. Craigslist, ebay or boat junk yards and they tend to fetch a fortune!

I see where you're headed. A friend of mine had a whale of a problem after his windshield got taken out in a storm.

He ended up going to a local glass company that works with hard to find stuff, and they told him to bring the boat to them or they would come out for measurements, and it worked out okay. It wasn't somebody like Safelight, it was just a regular glass company.

Re: 6 Meter windshield

I have been looking for one for a couple of years. I had submarined the boat under somebody elses wake after the fireworks one night. I took a big V shaped chunk out. Just glad it didn't hit anybody. Its moulded plexiglass. I tried Taylor Made years ago but since Century went belly up, they junked the forms. I missed a parts boat last week for $400 with a good one. My next step might be to make my own form and heat a sheet.
Bob, how much is a fortune?
