deepsouthtech Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Looking to add a removable windsheild similar to the link below. Does anybody know someone that makes them specifically for a Pathfinder or is it going to have to be custom made? http://www.bbupholstery.com/photo-gallery/custom-t-top-spray-curtain-and-windscreen/olympus-digital-camera-246/ Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEM Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 I believe you will be looking at a custom job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawgfan Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 I've been looking for the same thing and custom is the answer. My frame on the t-top is not square. Narrow at the top and wider at the bottom. I emailed B & B a drawing and dimensions of my t-top frame today, I.D and O.D. I'll let you know what they come back with.....thanks for the website info..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Williet1629 Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 That screen in the picture is really nice. Probably pretty expensive. My boat has a tower as well and I needed one, not that often but needed one. Here is a way to go. I went to JoAnn Fabrics. In the back they have a thick clear plastic that they sell off the roll. It's pretty inexpensive. I bought enough to wrap around the front and sides. On my way out, midway through the store they sell a grommet kit, I bought the one with the biggest "eye". Took it home, laid it on the garage floor, folded the edges of the plastic over an inch and a half to give the grommets something to bite into and put in four down each side. Bought some Velcro straps to tie it to the aluminum tubes and viola, $30 bucks later I have a rain screen. It rolls right up and fits in the side storage compartment. It doesn't look as good as that $300 one pictured but it is a good option for the couple of times a year that I'm on the water and need it.

Flying Guppy Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Here are some pictures of the enclosure we just had made from Gore Marine. Used the acrylic "glass" came out really nice and it's real clear to look through. Acrylic "glass" is more expensive then some of the Vinyl Products out there, but is much thicker and clear and will not haze over time. All in all I think Gore Marine did a really good job and so far very happy with enclosure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fin-addict Posted December 22, 2016 Report Share Posted December 22, 2016 just an idea for those thinking of having curtains made. have a u-zip window in the middle of front curtain. this allows air to pass thru without removing the whole curtain. just roll and strap. have done this on all my boats. curtains always remain in place.

Flying Guppy Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 the acrylic glass does not roll very well, it is a little too thick. Plus the guy who made the enclosure said that it is pretty small/narrow to try to put a zipper into and have a window in the front. If we want air we just step to the side a foot as the console is not very wide. But I have had enclosures on bigger boats that have had zippered windows and they are nice when it warms up and you don't want to have to take the entire enclosure down, you can open the window a get nice breeze while running.

bernieNC Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 You will be able to get some air by opening those two front zippers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
