who makes a good custom CC windshield
 

Looking to get a winshield made for my 20 CC. Anyone have experience with a company that makes a good product? Thanks.

Call Rob at Robinswood in Orleans.
He made a beautiful custom windshield for my 20 cc. Topnotch job.
You can see his add on Craigslist....just search under "boats"....windshield / Robinswood or lexan. Mention my name as the other Seacraft owner in Orleans. Just spoke with him at Dunkin Donuts three days ago.

Thanks. Just saw his Facebook page. How much was you windshield?

My recollection was that I paid $400.00 and tipped him $100 for a great job. Very meticulous. He essentially insisted on installing it himself because he wanted to make sure it was done right. I was able to give him my old one and had him duplicate that (which is what I wanted) but he can design to meet your specs.

Thanks. I'd prefer to keep my money local, so ill probably go with him. Thanks again.

You should also get the bow cushion done. It was great this year and my wife loved it especially. Able to stretch out in great comfort to soak up the rays but could always access the fish box if needed. That was $$$$ well spent!

He's not on the Cape, but I've always had nothing but fantastic service and very fair pricing from Tony at Palco Plastics. He's also a boater/fisherman.

Ask for Tony and tell him Paul from Logan sent you. :)

Thanks too fly. That's also what I would consider local. What's the best way to go about this as I don't have an old windshield I can take off and duplicate. Should I just trailer the boat to them and have them measure or should I do a drawing and measurements myself. Thanks.

why not make your own?!?!?!?

I'd call Tony to ask. But he'd probably want to take measurements at his shop. I had him put a windshield on my first boat, with nothing to replicate, and it came out exactly as I wanted it.

Wow. Nice work, thehermit!

Yeah, nice work, but not too confident in my abilities. What thickness plexi did you use for that?

I made my own on the 23' that I had using 1/4 Lexan.I found the Lexan much easier to work with than Plexiglass.

It was wicked easy. I think it was 3/8...but I would have to ck. I think the plastic cost me $80 bucks. Good luck ;)

Hmm, maybe ill have to experiment...

Hi. May I suggest Prospect Plastic in Pompano, Marcy Million is a contact there. They made two for me. $150 then. Furnished me with standoff buttons, etc. Don

What dimensions you looking for?

i'll have to check. I took about 8 inches out of the stock console and built up the top a little for electronics/gauges.

How does it look in the corners where you applied the heat to bend it, are there any bubbles or is there any difference in clarity of the lexan ?

I was just at Sun Ray plastic asking the same things. They make all kinds of stuff for many hi end mfrs. They said go with 3/8 lexan and use a metal brake at a local fab shop.

Said no heat necessary and holds the 90 bend.

Or follow Hermit`s nice work.
