I posted on 4/16 regarding my 2000 FourWinns horizon 180
my windshield was destroyed
some history: FourWinns refered me to Taylor-Made
I contacted Taylor -Made's Indiana Plant and New York Corporate office
both informed me that they do not make this windshield any longer.
someone here suggested the Iboats windshield replacement link
which I called, only to be refered to Taylor-Made Systems, albeit different
from Taylor-Made, under the same company umbrella.
once again i was informed that it is not possible to match this windshield
through Taylor-Made systems(because it is a curved windshield with an unusual wing,mounted on an uneven windshield deck)
I contacted FourWinns in Michigan and they mentioned possibly WaterBonnet in Fla has a replacement as they were the original manufacturer before
Taylor Made, I called WaterBonnet and although I havent recieved a callback yet, I'm discouraged as WaterBonnets voicemail system answers as "Waterbonnet- A Division Of Taylor Made Systems"
which brings me to my question for the people in the know here
Is there a national database for salvage boats and parts that I can access
there must be a 2000 FourWinns horizon 180 out there somewhere that has major damage to the hull/structure that makes the windshield on that boat useless to its owner/boatyard.
I'm pretty dismayed at FourWinns customer service, they are indifferent about this, on a boat just 8yrs old, they're kind of like "Oh Well"
sucky customer support IMHO
keep that in mind before you drop 14k for a new boat
any suggestions, help greatly appreciated
