Default Windshield on my 74 Tsunami, 23'

Thanks for quick updates and Picutres, If I knew how to post pictures here in e-mail, would do so. Any help on how to?

American marine has been contacted and samples are on the way for # TP-139, TP-814 and TP-251.

Four years ago I pulled out all the gaskets and plexiglass to replace a few panels and repaint the welded alum channel windshild. Used epoxy etching primer and epoxy top coat, the job turned out well, did it all in white. However made the mistake of throwing out all the gasket material as it was sun burnt, cracking, dried out and an off tan color.

The frame itself is basically a squared-off U shape, using weatherstripping to fill the gap and high quality silicon sealer for finish, it looked good for one sesaon, then mildew and now needs a replacement along with a couple of new plexi panels.

Looking forward to cleaning up the windscreen look with new gaskets.
