2000-2002 Fountain 42: Don't like the tall windshields....Can you have a professional cut down a tall windshield a few inches and re-attach the trim with minor mods to the trim??? or do you have to buy/trade one of the low one's? Anyone ever solve this??? Just doin some homework here preparing for a purchase.....

Call my friend Butch he has a shorty he will sell. It is brand new in the box from Fountain. 561-368-2433 M-F 8-5.

The race fairing looks much better than either windshield option. I almost bought a 29 fever and had done some research. Call Tom McNabb in Morris, Illinois, #815-041-1546. He builds custom fairings for Fountains.
I didn't end up buying that boat, but Tom was a real nice guy and would have been able to arrange for everything, including transport. Real nice guy. Word is he's also great with blueprinting bottoms as well. Good luck.

The number is #815-941-1546

I was wondering the same thing. Anyone prefer the tall one and want to trade?

Can it be cut down? Any suggestions would be appriciated.

I got a 92 27 that has the windshild without the lip. It has a bolted on extra clear lip to direct the wind..I agee ..It looks much sweeter...I'm in the process of getting a brand new one ..I will cut the lip offf and re atach my other clear lip ..like it was ..

Once I cut off the lip I will sand it and polish it..

When drilling the holes i will use a speacial plexiglass drill bit and drill slow..(It is like a dull standard drill bit.)

I will then paint it black on the inside . By sanding it w 320 and then putting bull dog on it then the black..For some reason >My boat looks sweet with the black glass.

Is this what you are thinking about doing?????

This is the medium windshield. I'm willing to sell it. I can provide more specific information or pictures upon request. This windshield is complete with everything except for the center bar. All Lexan (glass) is in fine shape (no cracks or crazing) The frame is white, screws are not included. Feel free to call 1 847 816 8468. Mark.
