I am looking for a windshield not a faring. I beieve that in order to stop the wind with a faring it would end up being to high. Peter said once he gets things figured out he would provide a drawing of some sort on the line drawing of the hull to see how it will look. I would also like to see what you come up with in the next day two as well. Maybe some of you have tried the finney flaps? I have been they actually work but even though they are ugly.

what I am working on is a fiberglass version of lexan that was already on a the boat and tested , it is more of a fairing not a windshield and it cuts down greatly on the wind. Would be less obvious, cheaper and easier then a windshield
