There wouldn't be a snap down if it weren't to be used. I run mine that way
100% of the time. It's never been closed whilst on the water. Same goes
for our '74 Anchor Craft Tri-hull we still have.

This is a newbie question, but on the bowriders with the walk through
windshield, my boat has a label saying to not operate the boat with the
glass opened and snapped down, that it should be closed and secured
first, is this just over caution?
Thanks
