Well,

We do know that 22-U’s did have ‘wooden-windshield with Sedan-Top’ (prewar kind of square, postwar ‘stream-lined’) options, Right?

And looked like it had always been there. So maybe the windsheild is not custom. That makes this a very cool boat for sure, the dash was changed big time. Tune in tomorrow for more on the story. You will get wood for sure It looked exactly like my 24. And looked like it had always been there. So maybe the windsheild is not custom.

Did that not have a very solid Philippine base? (Matt, check its construction with your 24's?) When I saw the originally headlined photo, with Patrick, I SAW large, well-stacked, WOOD! WTF is that? Awight Jimmy, and your little, local DC friends, Did You Buy the MARINA? Didn’t 22-U’s have a wooden windshield option? Did that not have a very solid Philippine base?

The windsheild is very much like one that Chris Craft made. What was cool about this boat was how it all teid together seamlesly. He had also made the rear deck larger. But it all looked very natural. It was a beautiful modification, so nice that we thought it was some sort of Chris Craft that we had never heard of.

I respect the guys that have to have everything original, but I also respect a person that customizes a boat like this one. If done with the craftmanship that this example seems to exhibit, it can enhance the usefulness and appearance of the boat. This looks like a really well done modification.
