How are you? We thought you were in the witness protection program. Don't stay away so long, your name still gets kicked around on here. Usually during Shark Week.

How are those Mako's treating you out there?

Hello Tony

I was in the program but they threw me out because of the chum processing smell.

Keith...

umm yeah...



Thats always my first reaction when a Mako comes up like that behind the boat with mouth wide open.


reach out and Pet IT ???


...on The Head.





Be careful man...or we'll be calling you Lefty.





As to window...I have no advice, but will stay tuned in as my windows are very high on my list of To Do's.
If your guy does the curved windows well enough...please pass on his contact info as I need 4 of them for my Express made.
Outer helm windows mimic the cabin window...and yours are perfectly clear compared to mine.

...oh maybe one thing. Not sure, maybe formulation has been changed, but from what I understood 5200 degrades in the Sun.
May not be the best choice for sealing the windows.



Tossed you out for chum smell?? really? didn't they at least watch Jaws once with Roy Schneider chumming off the back of the Orca and hear him complain about the stench.

Next year, toss around some Potpourri and layout fresh flowers.
Great to see you drop in, don't be such a stranger.

To remove corner windows, take out the acorn nuts as you said would come off, then remove molding - will likely need to cut under it, then gently pry up and off all the way around using wonder bars or some other wide prying devices. From there, we used a very pointy hole saw blade to make a hole that we could pass a piece of cutting wire through, then worked that all the way around and the corner windows came out perfect and could be used as templates. I would not use 5200 putting windows back in - need to have a bit of flex to them when pounding, and if you ever need to replace ie: breakage/damage, you need to have the ability to work a wire/blade around. If you come up with a new source for corner windows, I'd post it - the guy we used in Boston 2 years ago who had done them for years, has closed. Best of luck.

There are a few companies that make a product for glueing in window.https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/company-us/ ... gK6NvD_BwE
Also Sikaflex,Bostic.

I had flashbacks to Jaws when the buoy went down and away from the boat!

Aren't there some screws in the corners of the windows inside the channels that need to come out to let the frames torque to remove the glass? Or is that just if you want to replace the glass in place?

Hey guys as allways great information thank you all very much really appreciate the help.

I'm going to wait till next winter as my season is kicking off.

Wasn't Brodus or American Marine making windows for the 31? I know I have that information some place. I have to look around.

Sorry to hear you lost the Shark Week gig. Who are you doing Shark research for now? I know that was a big part of what you did?

Still doing shark week filming again very soon.
