What years did you work there. Maybe you worked on my boat! Eric :evilb:

Give me a call 631-435-8496. I think you will need a new canopy. The laminate schedule outlined has not been in use for about 20 years. The canopy is quite old and once delaminating cannot be repaired,

I replaced my canopies last year. I ordered and paid Jay at Spectre for them. Several months went by with them only being supplied one canopy and a bunch of excuses why the second was not delivered. All of this stopped in a day when Jay called Peter at Skater and bought one from his inventory. I called Peter that night to thank him and he asked shy I didn't buy them from him in the first place, since he had 30 or so in stock. I never thought of it since my boat is a Spectre.

If you want to buy a new canopy, Peter is the go to guy. No excuses, he had it shipped the same day Jay spoke with him.
Peter even answered the phone that night when I called to thank him at 5:30 in the evening. Just another reason everyone loves Skaters and Peter in particular.

Sorry, I am in the Auto Glass industry, not the canopy industry.

I talked to you today on the phone, George. Thanks for the info. I'm going to try to make it through this season, I can see through it fine now. Shawn, what was wrong with your canopys? Were they originally F-16 canopys? Thanks Mike J. Eric

My driver side canopy began to delaminate and was cloudy in my line of vision. There were the oringinal F16 Canopies and I replace them with the same product. I sent the old one to Jay at Spectre to use as a template. If I were to do it again, I would ONLY deal with Peter at Skater. Send him the old one and get a new one back cut to the same size.

Thanks for the info Shawn, i'll keep that in mind. Eric
