Lexan windows for white water jet boats.

Lexan windows are tough. They don't blow out or shatter when hit by big waves or face plants. Front windows are bolted to the aluminum window frame. Side windows can be free to slide (no bolts) if vertical stiffeners are added. Lexan is very easy to work with. It can be sawed and drilled with no special techniques or tools.

Hey I have the same polisher! Great video

Even though I don't jetboat currently, the only defense of glass, is absence of wiper smear. River water is sandy. The tradeoff is being able to see without glare from wiper smear, vs. sinking. Until we find something better, Lexan wins... we should just make sure to clean the sand from the wiper blades. I believe Bentz figured out how to mount glass for the helm - forward view port, that is unlikely to push through

Where did you get the aluminum channel / track for your side windows?
Also I wonder if plexus would do better than pledge? It seemingly requires less elbow grease….

For the stiffeners onlinemetals.com or metalsdepot.com. I forget which. Didn't try plexus. The window frame material came from HCM. I've not looked for an alternative supplier, but I've noticed various aluminum extrusions online.
