:eekdrop: I'll get my 300xs's first LOL. that's just stupid money regardless if i have it or not. doesn't Jim Lee do this kinda stuff????

You 28 owners that want a windshield that you see thru and not a fairing need to get in touch with Dave Bush ( DBR Racing ) his father made a very nice W/S that had aluminum corners . Very good looking part

I dont know if you guys have priced custom curved glass lately but even a small corner piece for a 24' boat runs about $5k. That is what I had to pay after a storm to have one little section custom made.

A full wrap around one? if it were under $20k just for the glass I would be shocked, then you still need framework to hold it onto the boat.

Curved lexan would be a lot more reasonable

It was Joes father that built the aluminum pieces. I have spoken to him about it but last conversation was he was going to see if he could or wanted to make more. Joe works with Dave Bush. I can call and see where he s with it. He also owns the all white triple eng 28 that was for sale. I believe he still has it. Great guy!

I am interested. IMO that's the best looking windscreen to date on a 28!!! hopefully will have SOMETHING better when I re-rig. the trip boat is in my previous post. from the pics it looks incredible. looks to have nothing in the tunnel for the third motor...is that normal?? thought it was needed???
