I got some more sad news for all us Baja owners. Spartech Marine that supplied many of the plexigass, and soapboard items to Baja Marine will no longer be in business after this Friday. Not the parent company, just the division that produced fabricated items.
I worked on many projects with personnel from this company that was originally Viplex Marine, and NO other company could match the quality for their plex. doors, and windscreens in my opinion.
I have been promissed a list of items that require tooling, and where they may end-up. Other companies are bidding on these items, and they may get distributed to other companies? Here is a short list of the windscreen tooling that still exsisted with them:
40 Outlaw - windscreen
23, 26, 30, & 35 Outlaw - windscreen
342 - windscreen?
33 Outlaw - windscreen
29 Outlaw - windscreen
275 - windscreen
252 Boss - windscreen
25 Outlaw - windscreen
245 - windscreen
250 Islander/SF - 36" windscreen
Hammer/H2x - windscreen
I will hope to become a distributor with any new company, as we were with Spartech Marine.

Hey Guys, prob 80% of Spartech Marine's tooling has been sent to a company called Teak Isle Manufacturing, just outside Orlando. The # @ T.I. is 407-656-8885.
They should have the ability able to manufacture anything Spartech provided. However, I am sure that it won't be cheap. They don't stock any parts. If they can produce the parts, they would be a "One Off / Custom" Production Run and that is never cheap. But better than running w/out a cabin entry door.
If interested, feel free to shoot me an email and I can give you more details ([email protected])

Duke252 is correct, and they even hired the contact that I worked with for Baja Marine. His name is Jim Cox, and the company owners name is Pat Brown. Jim is familiar with everything we bought from Spartech Marine, and Pat knows about everything we bought from Teak Isle.
