Re: Fletcher Arrow

Sorry, not really. One of screen in progress.

We didn't pour any foam on the Glastron, but I did on a Stuart Stevens 16' (1977 vintage). I used poured (in the cabin seat sides and sandwiched polyurethane sheet either side of the engine well on the SS - piccy), and polycarb windshield on the SS, first heat curved (lots ob bubbles in the bends!), 2nd with angle plates at the corners as per piccy.
Good luck,

O-G

Looking good, thanks for posting a pic of the plate off of the boat, i've now gone out and part x'd my 30hp mariner for a 60hp mariner. I'll hopefully get it fitted later today.

Re: Fletcher Arrow

coming together nicely.What did you use for the windscreen as I need to redo mine. I was looking at 5mm perspex or acrylic but not too sure if it'll bend ok ?

Re: Fletcher Arrow

Hi again looking in some boxes today and found that the old steering boss has broken . This is the old type where you wind the cable around it then its a closed loop system around pulleys. Can you still get these parts and what are they actually called because I cannot find them anywhere on the internet

Thanks Neil
