Help, Phone # for Viplex Corp,Melbourne FL or Uniroyal Technology Corp
 
I found My windscreen broke today after uncovering it :mad: I am trying to find a phone # to replace it. Viplex Corp in Melbourne FL,made it .They make acrilic plastic products for the marine industry.

It may be called Uniroyal Technology Corp now? or somebody else might own them now?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Rob

Good Luck Strip. I went through this with my old boat that had a Viplex windshield. From what I remember, Viplex was bought out by Spartech back around the time I was researching. Might want to call Hustler and talk real nice with them. When Baja allowed Viplex/Spartech to sell direct, Viplex sold my windshield for $800. Baja wants $2500 for the same exact thing. Pretty heavy markup if you ask me.

Thats what I am figuring from Hustler 2-3k.:( You would figure they would be happy making the money on the sale of the boat and not 300% mark up on parts after the sale.

Yea Tom you were so excited after ridding in a real fast boat :p thats OK:drink:


The crack started in a bolt hole, I guess its from when it was installed from the factory?
