Windshield Replacement for Pursuit 2470 CC ?

Postby cmaccormac » Sat Jan 06, 2018 8:12 am

Hello Folks, I have a 2003 Pursuit 2470 CC that has been a great boat. My only problem with it is that the plexiglass (or lexan?) windshield has become difficult to see through, particularly when heading into the sun or when there is lots of glare. I think this condition is called "crazing".

From what I've read online, there does not appear to be a way to reverse this damage, which apparently occurs over time due to exposure to sun, etc., so as this point I'd like to replace the windshield all together. Unfortunately Pursuit does not stock them anymore and they also cannot provide me with the specifications for this windshield.

I'd like to get a new windshield during this off season and install it in the Spring. My boat is shrink wrapped and put away for the winter, 5 hours away from where I live, so getting the windshield measurements myself will be very difficult for the next few months. I've been looking around online and making some calls to various marine windshield manufacturers (eg UPD Plastics), but in order to be sure I get the right windshield, I need good specs.

Does anyone know of a marine windshield dealer/manufacturer who would have the specs, or would stock new windshields for this boat? Any advice or suggestions will be much appreciated. Thanks, and happy boating!

Try this company: http://pompanettellc.com/american-marine/

I had a link to American Marine that now does not work. Looks like they were taken over by Pompanette. About10 years ago I needed seals for my Pursuit and they had made the windshield. I believe when I called they had all the specs.
