Looks great!!!

What did you do with the white rubrail insert? I need to replace a section of mine that is the wrong shade of white.

Let me know if you want a Fountain logo on the steering center.

Looks great. I am looking at a switch going the other way. Presently have a race fairing on a 38' Lightning. Really like the looks of the 1/2 windshield and looking at this change. Does the fairing change require any new holes or work on the deck? How simple is the change? Any fiberglass work? Thanks for any input.....

Clean Sweep that is going to be a very large job. First the fairing is thru-bolted, secondly they use 5200 which is next to impossible to remove. You will probably spend 3K in fiberglass work to prep the boat on top of the $6K+ for the windshield unless you find someone to trade.
