Windshields
I'd like a bit of info . .
The windshields on the Banana 24 are made of what? Lexan?
And how thick?
I'm going to build something very similar for my Magnum 27,
without a frame . . and I'd like it to be strong . .

Do you find that the acrylic lasts well in the sun?
I desire to make mine a single piece across the front, with a bend at the peak of the vee, I've worked with Lexan, how difficult is it with acrylic and do you believe it will still be strong enough?
Does your new boat have support frames in the center . . ?pictures don't look like it . .
Thank you!!!

PS, I now see that the door is also made of the samw stuff, I'll look into changing that over too! Any Idea on the prices for doing so?

Can't wait to see those pictures! Try shooting a picture from behind the sterring wheel looking through the windshield so we can see the clarity (be extra daring and put some text behind the windshield so we can read it - true test of optics). Don't just shoot the straightest/flat part of the windshield, make sure to shoot the radius/bend/corners of it.
I can post mine if you want some examples of how to do it and see true clarity. I think our number is on your auto dial so just give us a call if you need more help. Just dont ask me to sell you my customers tooling again because the answer is still the same "WE DON'T SELL OUR CLIENT'S TOOLING"!
Post those pics if you dare! LOL!
