Today is a day of rest, but tomorrow is back to work and I promise to review all of your email requests and to be clear I have all of them that you sent from the Skater to Spectre projects. You were also sent photos as I send them to potential clients who are serious about using Aero Marine Products.
Thank goodness I spoke to Mr. Conrad before sending you anything and verified that he did not have any interest in you splashing his windshield. Sounds like you are saying you only wanted to do one boat but your other posts say differently.... Everyone has to learn from someone but I just prefer to know when I am dealing with a "marine optic manufacturer". LOL!
Speaking of Nascar, I just finished a (Acrylic Roof) Chevy Nomad for a gentleman named Rusty Wallace. People can check out the build on "Street Customs" TV show in May. We do quite a bit of work for West Coast Customs and TLC/Discovery channel. You should check it out!

Carman,no need to be so defensive. I have a Skater and working on a 36 Spectre both needing windshields. I called Scott because I liked the look of the 32's windshield, he said you made them and it was ok to call you to purchase one. I splashed nothing. between the engineers and myself we designed a new windshield, plug, mould, had it digitized, cnc'd, filed and built from scratch out of ballistic lexan with a proprietary scratch resistant film, uv inhibitors, to fit, retrofit config's of the canopy shape on most boats.you have a good product but I wanted something that could'nt shatter if hit.If the clarity of Percys windshields are good enough for Jeff Gordan and Rick Hendricks than they are good enough for me. I never questioned your product, this is not a challenge or contest here and if you took it that way I'm sorry, best of luck.

Jeff no back peddling here plastered all over the internet, you mean 3 sites , another jassman exageration.. We are making the windshields now, we are making 4 this week for1-mti, 2- 40 skaters and 1-46 skater, I'll be posting pics just to please all you non believers here on oso, Jeff {I've already spent several thousands of dollars on this, there has already been alot of interest in these windshields, owners like the look, safety, much better ability to see, and comfort for all passengers not getting blown away and able to talk at speed. why are you always so pessimistic

As for her posting, well if we all have to have go through Jim’s post then I can see no reason why you in particular have an issue with her posting.

I just hope Terry Sobo/ Trond don't read this....... They will feel so bad they didn't go with this product they will want to go shred their new 40-44-50 Roadster designs to go with this fantastic new product often duplicated but yet never seen. 
If so many are already done why aren't any pictures out there?

I cant post pics here, I posted them on boatfreaks, my windshield was my design from scratch, not a skater, nota spectre, I started with f16 canopys, lexan, screws, foam rigid, spray, alot of bondo, sanding, fiberglass, epoxy resin, flock, release, release wax, built the plug, mould, thetub, cast, digitized, cnc'd, filed, I've spent over 150 hours and nearly 15k on the windshield, It is my design for oem replacement applications of f 16 canopys on many boats, they are made of lexan not acrylic like nearly all others are made from, again Rik, I respect you and your business, just make sure you have the facts before you put someone down or make a false assumption, this was a lot of hard work and a very seccessful project, thats it, Jim
