Winds blowing about 18 today so, maybe grocery shopping.

Hasn’t missed a beat. We were going to come up for 7-11 next week but 115 just isn’t appealing to me. We’re going to do a couple day trips. One at least to Roosevelt

The boat sounds incredible. Things are so busy and my mind going in so many directions these days. It took me about 4 months to realize that we saw your boat at Howard in Feb. Took this picture to help the wife remember what we saw that day.

Small World!!, thanks for the pic, its added to the scrap book.

A smoked windshield would really give her a sinister profile, IMO.

Just ordered one! Wife did not enjoy the sandblast treatment!!
Probably take 6 months to get, hopefully just in time for next year.

 

[v6toy4x]

might you have any loot left to upgrade the tow unit?

In the works! thanks to @COCA COLA COWBOY and others for the contact info, maybe here early december

I should have listened to Gene, took boat back for the windshield.
Mike told me it would be cheaper to slow down!!!

Picking it up next wednesday

Do you really think it will make much difference? Still looks great with it though.

Good question, I hope it at least makes my wife more comfortable.
I do think the tinted versions looks a lot better than the clear one??

BTW-
There was a 255 down there with the first 600!

The tinted looks really good. The 600 would be nice of you planned to use it in Tahoe or somewhere with high elevation. I wish I had the 600 just to say I did. Not sure it would have any practical purpose.

Pretty much what Mike said!

So the wind still hits me, I got a new pair of prescription gasketed sunglasses which work great, until I loose them. My wife says its good, she sits a bit lower in the seat and can lean forward if she really wants to get out of the wind. I took it our last week with 8 different boats, the vote was 6-2 that it looked good FWIW??

What speeds was it bothering you without the windshield and how about with it?

Wife complained at 50ish, now she says she is fine??
I wear glasses so the wind would come in around the lenses. I got some gasketed glasses and it is night and day. Probably should have known that in the beginning

There is a lot more options than just this one page of the site, I spent several hours searching through.

I ended up with the Liberty sport Navigator H2Os, I changed the silicone gasket to a vented foam gasket.
They were like 400 with options and prescription.
