2011 SEPT – New cockpit enclosure

Crystal clear windscreen - finally
COST OF NEW ENCLOSURES: $4450
FastAlley came with stratoglass windscreens but they were so clouded and old that I could not see out of them – even if I cleaned and polished them for hours. The only thing they were good for was protecting me in the cockpit from wind and spray.
I decided to replace the windscreens and while I was about it, build an enclosure all the way around the cockpit to give me a snug outside room.

The new windscreen (before adding the rest of the enclosure)
I need 3 “doorways” – one to get to the lines to starboard, one door to port, and one door out the back for access to the dinghy.
