I've had this Taylor Made windshield I picked up a few years ago for free with the intention of putting it on the MFG. I was so use to running with out a windshield I just never got around to it. So today I mounted it up and I tell you it changed the whole look of the boat.

What do you guys think?

HEY, Wait a Minute !! VwF ; I just noticed your dash setup is the same as mine!!! How solid is your paperwork ? Do you have a data plate??? you got me scratching my old bald head now ....lol
The windshield looks good ; the angles work well with the lines of the boat , do they open to let air in ? I like that option with old one . peter

ps . do you have any sources for windshields ? One of the newbies was looking a replacement peter

I was in the same position as you. I found the HID# but unfortunately it was no help.

Being a free boat all I had to do was the detective work. Using every thing I could find on this site and all the web. A 1963 17' Westfield Custom with optional center ventilation windshield, Center stow dash, and hard top.

So that's what it is now and for every registered as.
