Island-Ho: It's been ten months since posting this request for help to replace my Ritchie compass in my Four Winns. I bought the replacement compass over the winter and finally got around to trying out your advice this afternoon. You were spot on as to how to accomplish the windshield partial removal! I can't thank you enough for your advice ..... the whole project took me less than 30 minutes. Now I wonder why I procrastinated so long! Thanks again.
