What are you looking for the support? I would love to know if this will work for my windshield application. Are there any measurements I can take to verify that the windshield angle would be on, and length from boat to edge of shield? Thanks and have you found that the double sided tape is all you need to secure to shield?

I have read before about Formula windshields breaking. I just happened to run across this on CL if anyone is looking for one.

Windshield support is now available for sale.
Tested few days on rough water of Lake Michigan and it works awesome. Zero flex on the frame and you can actually hold it now going to the bow.
Unfortunately with current aluminium prices price is $900 shipped in US.
Please let me know if anyone wants to order one. They are build to order.

Very Nice work and product. I agree the aluminum looks nice but have you considered an alternate material?

Some sort of nylon might make it less expensive. Won't look as good, but plastic is usually cheaper.

Machining process takes hours. Changing material will cut the cost few $$ for sure but I don't want tonuse plastic. Shipping it overseas would cut the cost for sure,but I will not do that. I support local economy and suppliers. So aluminum it is.

I'm new to this forum, however very interested in the brace. What are you currently selling them for and what is the timeline on getting one? They look great!
