Starboard Windshield Needed 2002 LS 2000...CRAP

[treeskier]

The 4th Nor'easter that came through oscillated the starboard windshield enough to disengage the latch and the wind flipped it up and snapped it off the boat.

Its mostly intact but snapped at the hinge.

Has anyone had any luck or heard about repairing these?

Anyone parting out and have a starboard windshield?

Thanks...I'm depressed :-(

Oh no.... do you have a picture? Can you use bondo to fix it?

I don't have a picture but it basically snapped at the hinge. The other damage is minimal. It seems like it should be fixable. I dropped it off at my dad's who has some experience building fiberglass sail boats and kayaks. He's thinking fiberglass resin and cloth to reinforce the areas where it broke and the piece is glued back in (mainly around the hinge. My hope is I can get it to where it can at least function in the closed position. I may need to baby it going in ant out of the compartment. We shall see.

I’ve seen a thread somewhere (probably YJB) where people had succes with a plastic glue.

My friend who does body work used an epoxy to fix ours. 3yrs and it worked great!!
