I could use the starboard side forward glass if you want to sell one piece.

I also needed passenger side forward glass. Ordered it yesterday by bringing in the driver side piece for a template. $80 from Lee & Cates which is not known for low prices around here, so you should be able to get it for $80 or less. Just figured I'd throw that out there because I'm guessing he doesn't want to part with just the glass.

Shipping glass from FL to MD probably isn't practical either.

I would like to get rid of windshield.
I also have swim platform that si an armstrong bracket. It is not a full transom bracket. It fits on one side and allows for an ladder to be attached.

Not trying to cause a panic.....but....are the port and starboard glass the same width? I am pretty sure I read here that the port side glass was a little wider than the starboard side, and that I measured my '74 cuddy and found it to be true. Could be confusing this with another of my boats, but think it applied to the V20s.

Don't mean to cause a panic my a$$. Definitely had me out in the cold garage comparing parts. It does appear to be slightly wider, but only by 1/2 inch at most. What that means is that my new glass may come in 1/2" too narrow, but I can work with that, I'm pretty sure. 1" or more would be a problem, but I think I'm OK. Still think I'll call the glass shop tomorrow to see if they've cut it yet.

That must put you pretty close to Panama City Beach... one of my favorite places. We did a family trip to Destin two years ago and I made solo runs down to PCB twice during the week to dive with a spearfishing charter (Couldn't find a spearo friendly charter in all of Destin -- one lady said it'd by like bringing a rifle on a birdwatching tour!). I love the Emerald Coast -- crystal clear water, consistently calm conditions, and lots of fish.

actually i'm in downtown panama city, the old part of town. i was in the pc dive club for 15 years and we would go to destin and charter a dive boat, when we showed up with poke poles & JBL's, they looked at us like a hair on a wedding cake. it's even worse in the keys.
