boat windshields

[armstead]

I happen to see a boat on you tube with what looks like a tinted wind screen. Has anyone ever done this before on a sundeck. Or is that some other type of covering on the windshield. Looks really good especially on a boat that has black on it. I spoke with a local tint guys that said because of the curve of the glass it was impossible to do. Does anyone have and experence with this???

It's not impossible... but a good recommendation is to take the windshield out and do it outside the boat. I've heard it's OK during the day but if you do any night / dusk driving it can be a pain.

I don't have mine done... just passing on some info I've read.

Wow. I have enough problem looking through the windshield when it's clear. . ..

That's funny, because the majority of the times I fine myself sitting up over the windshield, especially at high speeds. Even while clear i can't seem to trust looking through the windshied. So if i was driving late evening or at night, I can't even imagine driving while looking throught the shield anyway...:wow:

Though a nice boat his shield is straight unlike the Sundeck, all the glass is curved except the walk thru door glass.

I have my 185 sport tinted at 15%. My tint guy said it was a pain in the a$$ but it turned out great.

Having it looking cool is one thing, practical case scenario when coming back on dark and rainy night is very different. I don't think this boat has wipers, so good luck when vizibility drops.
