Hi,

My brother-in-law and I are refurbishing an old Sunray 14' boat. It's in
very good condition except for the windshield which has to be replaced. We
want to do it ourselves but need a little advice on how to proceed. Molding
it with plexiglass is definitely one option we're looking at. Does anyone
have a good site to propose where we could find complete and thorough
information on the technique to use? I have done some research and found a
few sites but they were not specific enough.

Thanks in advance to all!

1) Make a slim box with a heater you can control with e.g a dimmer
switch.
2) Heat a sheet until it is floppy.
3) Drape over a form covered with smooth felt, optionally greased
while it cools.

Repeat steps 2) and 3) once or twice until you get it right.
