Only took me about an hour, probably too long, but I a anal.
Oh, and Havasu was real nice till around 1pm, a lot of clouds made the day cooler, it is way hot right now though. We got out of the water at 1pm because the ranger at Windsor said there was a monsoon on its way from Kingman, well, now it is not going to get here till tonight. Oh well, it gave me time to install my windflaps.http://www2.***boat.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=15728&stc=1

Nice meeting you to bro, and I dig the beer tap. If I would have know that was one of the options when you offered me something to drink, I would have taken you up on that drink. :)

Where did you end up buying them? They look great, and sure will come in handy for early/late season boating.

Were the chrome bars already on your boat or did they come with the winflaps?

Will they stay upright at 80+ mph? They look nice and pretty reasonably priced. Might have to order a set.

I have the same set and they have never blown down. Mid 70's, no problem.

They came with the windflaps, you could also get the bars in different colors.

Thanks everybody, it took me for ever to measure and double measure to make sure I was not f'ng it up. I used a lot of the blue masking tape and it was damn hard to drill thru the glass, mostly because I was afraid to get it wrong and have an extra hole on my boat. :)

I think he's using the onboard porta-pottie. I think those three emptied half their cooler before they got out of the brekers. :220v:

My wife suggested the same thing, but I don't have one here in the Havi house, and I did not feel like driving down to Home Depot to get one.

Update:
The windflaps work pretty good, it does not block out all the wind, but now I can hear what my wife is saying. Hmmmmm, maybe I should not have installed them. :) Anyway, the wife likes it a lot more, a lot less hot air hitting her and the baby.
