Have you checked with your insurance? It is probably covered under your comprehensive coverage.

Yes, it should be covered. Given though that it is a 2002, even the dealerships may have issue with getting the part.

Same think happened to me a few years ago with our 1993 boat. In the end I had Pemi Glass replace it with plexyglass. Not the best option but it is an option. Search ebay you may get lucky.

Meredith junk yard had some....only had drivers side......also I had heard after we replaced ours with plexiglass, that Fays boatyard may have had some from old rentals ....they're very expensive if you replace with new from manufacturer...

They are very much a DIY job. Takes mere minutes to swap one.

Thank you for all of the feedback. I did check M&M Salvage in Meredith this past weekend, no luck. Is there another I should check out?

I was watching Ship Shape TV this morning and saw a commercial for a Taylor Made Systems site that may help. They do repair, replacement and refurbishments. Good luck!

Thanks Old Sarge, that is actually where I went through to get a replacement. TaylorMade bought Water Bonnet, which made the original. Luckily they still could make a replacement. Now we just need to wait for the remainder of the snow to melt to try it on for size

I wouldn't be surprised if they have a how to video on their site showing you the replacement

There used to be a boat recycling yard in Meredith. Give them a try. Maybe they have one. Haven't been there in years.
