I had one built for my 30 Motion and Love it! Here is the before and after, I actually like the looks of the boat with the winshield better.

Might look a little "'stubby" but at 170+ I'll take it like that. Without a w/s your neck would get tired of bracing against the wind even if you wore a helmet.

My Carlson had just a very short fairing which was no protection at all at 100+. I bought a helmet which helped a lot even at 70-90.

Good-lookin boat Jimmy.

1/4 canopies are nice on the 32. Any speeds north of 100 mph for even a short time without windshields gets real old.
