The best source of OEM parts for Boston Whaler is from a dealer, and the dealer that seems most interested in helping owners of older Boston Whaler boats is TWIN CITIES MARINE in Wisconsin. Sue Lodel is a good point of contact at at Twin Cities Marine in Two Rivers. I think their telephone number is 920-793-2715. It may also be possible to have a plexiglass windscreen custom made by someone local to you. Crazing may be possible to remove by using a fine abrasive and lots of buffing. Try a GOOGLE search on "repair plexiglass crazing." |

You can order from Sue. She gives great service yes, but you can order directly from UPD the windshield manufacture yourself. Many people here have used them and are very satisfied with their product. http://www.updplastics.com/boston%20whaler%20windshields%202.html I recommend the Medium Bronze as it's closest to OEM. |

Jeff--Thanks for that great information. Based on your recommendation, I have added UPD PLASTICS to the recommended sources and vendors article in the REFERENCE section. |

Our shields are the highest quality windshields you can purchase. No factory seconds, or inferior quality material that will craze or discolor before it's time. We use Cell Cast Acrylic Material. We hand polish all our edges. No flame polishing is used as this causes crazing of the material within a few months. You can expect to get nothing but top quality from UPD Plastics 31 years of fabrication experience. Boston Whaler 1972 19 ft Outrage

All windshields are custom built. Windshields can be mounted directly on top of a flat surfaced console or with our mounting clips. Can also be made to attach on the side of your console. If you currently have a damaged windshield in place, it is quite easy to measure the old one to ensure we are provided with the proper dimensions at the time of order. If you have any questions on measuring your console for a proper fit, contact William at 855-901-4599, option 3. Make sure to take all measurements carefully. All windshields are custom built and made to order and cannot be returned due to incorrect measurements. Choose your item correctly based on the width of your console. Place order and note dimensions in seller instructions. Please provide a phone number in case there are any questions regarding your order. New windshields are typically shipped within 3-5 business days. Shipped best way and shipping is included. Width - 26" to 30" $100.00 |

Powergroove, Yes, the windshield for your 1977 is the same as a 1976 and 1978. UPD's listing of models and years is terribly confusing.... |
