Boat Customs proud to announce our latest projects, we are very thankful to have teamed up with Jim Lee of Lee Aerospace and multiple great customers in this process. We have developed a one of a kind aftermarket wrap-around windshield for multiple performance boat applications. The concepts and designs have been done in house with everyone’s help. This project has been over a year in the making; Jim flew back and forth from Wichita multiple times to help in this process and donated his 28 Skater for the first to be fit.
We are very excited and can’t wait to create multiple works of art, as well updating some of the industries favorite boats. Our current molds and tools will fit many varieties of performance boats but not limited to, 38 to 47 Fountains 28 to 36 Skaters 30 to 36 Spectre’s, the one down fall we found is the size of our original design is limited to 5 person configurations. We are currently working on larger tools to accommodate 6 person cockpits, and should be complete ready to pull parts by late May.
We also are capable of a variety of custom glass work, arranging from Hatches, Bustle extensions, and Center Consoles. As well as everyone knows our custom paint jobs.
I want to personally say thank you to everyone that has helped and supported us in this process, we greatly appreciate everyone’s help! We look forward to working with many great customers!

LV- that would be greatly appreciated!! Unfortunately I'm aware of that fact but can't justify investing any more $$ in a boat that's for sale. BUT this does offer options to a future owner.:cheer::cheer:

In your case you were planning to new paint job so it all works out. To patch & blend or match an existing scheme adds a little more stress to ensuring one gets the overall finished product they desire. A.K.A. a factory / OEM finished look. My deck is primarily white except along the most outer 12".

Exactly what I was thinking but somehow Cashbar is hyper focused on the canopies & has overlooked the talent as if it doesn't even exist!

So what you are saying is you were hyper focused on what you thought to be just 2 headrests thus overlooking the talent.
No I understand completely! :party-smiley-004:

It's like $60,000.00 to $65,000.00. That includes the receiver for the wrap around windshield, the wrap around windshield and the new 6 person cockpit. (Most up-date the dash also at this point) Plus the touch up paint to blend the new receiver with the original paint on the boat.

Thanks Jimmy, I appreciate you guys busting butt to get it done.

Lot more than 10,000.00. Each boat it quoted for work that needs to be completed. It does however add good resale value to the boat and it's a lot better to ride in if you don't want everybody to ware goggles all the time .

sorry 15k then according to blume's 60k. but if it is like money i would feel better with the quality of skater and so would the resale value when i wanted to get rid of the boat

No different than having ones tanks done there are options. Some may be driven by price, others location even turn around time. All relevant factors!
