  • Found new Windshield Guy !

    Thanks to one of our new members showing the link, I was able to call this fellow who is called, The Plastics Guy.
    His prices are realistic so now we have a reasonable company to make windows, helm, cabin, the whole thing.

    This fellows name is Brett and his phone number is 916-728-8264 and his website is http://www.theplasticsguy.com

    Kelly, you got some crazy price for something like $3000 dollars, was that for all the glass on your boat ?

    $3k was for all glass. I paid under $1k for the upper windows in acrylic for the Skagit.
    The problem I see going that far south is 1) shipping the templates (I doubt they have Skagit stuff) and 2) shipping all of it back.
    Hey has amazing prices, just not sure the shipping cost leads to a better deal... at least for boats that he doesn't have templates for.

      This fellow has the templates for most of the Dorsett boats so, once he has the Skagit molds created, it will be just Place the order from him.
      I will know more as I am planning a trip down to Sacramento and will be able to come back with a full report.

      Windows has Always been a hard one for us so if the person that is Retiring up in the Seattle area is willing to sell those templates he has, It might be worth it for the club to invest in them.
      Just saying

        I'll ask if he's willing to part with them.
