Man, you don't wanna do that. If you want a wind shield stick with the preformance series. I don't think your target budget is going to allow you to shop 00-02 29's anyway. JMO

Well, i found a 01 fresh water 272 with the 496ho that I want to go with. I really only want a single engine. I have had a few 272's in the past so im pretty familer with them. I just not a fan on not having a windshield eaither. I was in fort laurdale and looked at a 01 272 502efi and found out why i do not want a salt water boat. Guess its fine if you maintain your stuff, but 50hrs later back in Chicago with no boat, lol. Looks like the Carolina's next week, lol.

In answer to your question the 29 O/L only came with a fairing.
The 272 could be bought either way.

290s have a windshield and can sometimes be found in that price range. Unfortunately, I cant seem to find any examples. Checked OSO, Ebay Motors and Boat Trader and couldnt find one anywhere.
