Walk thru windshield

[cuzican]

i just pulled the pin out a little further and added some lock-tite. I'll let you know how it works.

I would think if you repositioned it, braced the bottom of the pin, and hit the top of the pin a couple of times with a center punch and a hammer it would probably stay put. Just enoguh to expand the top end to keep it from sliding...

You could also put a slight bend/curve into the pin, it would create enough friction to keep it in place.

I have had the window 'fall' through the stop guard before but only on long trips. (Not sure if that's what you're talking about). Someone posted back to me that it was because I was overloading the sides of the boat (around the engine) and the boat was bowing out. Suggested that I put anything heavy on the floor at the front of the boat to fix the problem. Since I switched to that load pattern, I have not had a problem.

Well that's first, in all my years i've never heard that one before. It would seem to me you'd have to have a serious amount of weight for that to occur since open bow boats have support systems to prevent flex in the first place. What was it 2000 lbs of ballast on one side?

Wow. What was the reason for all this weight? I wouldnt even think that was possible. Learn something new everyday.
