View attachment 9142 Thursday was my first time out with the tinted windows, they really do make a difference in the heat buildup!
I'm slacking on the photos, I normally take a ton while out but this is the only one of the boat I took that day, and my cousin is in the way
I believe mine is 15%.
I love it, I think it looks good and the dash area seems to stay a lot cooler. I think it is well worth it, but some people say they don't like it because it limits their vision, I don't boat at night and I'm usually looking over the windshield when I'm driving anyway. So it doesn't bother me at all.
No new ones at my house.. wife said yes to a new one a year or 2 ago we went to boat store and saw how much these boats are now days. I don't think we have 200 hours on ours I figured it was best to keep my little 2008 that's paid off.. but I'd sure like to ride on a new 1

I can't complain. I will not even add any fins to this boat. I can spin this bad boy in a full 360 going 4 mph. Docking is a breeze and the torque is unreal at takeoff. Yamaha definitely got it right with the 2017.
