30' Motion, 21 Liberator Flats, 22' Glassmaster with a Diesel Outboard!
Windsheild for my 30 Motion!

Hi All-

Well I have been doing some research for about six months on full wrap around windsheilds. I have been working with an OEM and finally think I came up with a nice windsheild for a 30 Motion. In the picutures the windsheild is just held on by a few bolts so it might look a little off. I had to make some measurements to finish the rest of the parts needed. I just thought I would show some before and after pictures.

30 Motion Cat SOLD, 18 Nordic Bubbledeck, what's next??????
Don - that looks OUTSTANDING! Really changes the look of the boat. Looking forward to seeing the final product. Plus its low enough not to affect access to the bow. Congrats - GREAT JOB!

Thanks! I really think this is going to work well. My last motion I had I built windscreens for it and was never really happy with them. The boat has a long way to go before its done but it should be a 1 of a kind when I am done.

25' Motion
How are you going to attach it so it doesn't vibrate and rattle? I attacehed mine with nylock nuts, and now I am adding little rubber wachers.

The company I bought the windsheild from also gave me the part numbers needed to mount the windsheild to the boat. It has plastic inserts, washers, and nyloc nuts for the screws.

I will call them tomorrow and ask if it is OK..... I don't think there will be a problem. I just don't want to make anyone mad.
