Well you can always go the DIY route with Plexiglas or pony up with these guys.

Either way, good luck. :thumright:

Does any one have measurements for a 1981 222 CCP windshield as per UPD instructions https://www.updplastics.com/measuring-you-windshield-instructions/ ? They don't list the 222 CCP as a one of their stock items.

My windshield let go last summer, as per the attached photo , and needs to get replaced. The boat is in MA locked away and I'm in Australia. So can't get reliable measurements.

I've attached a photo of the console too. I'm pretty sure its bog standard.

Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.

I'll phrase the question another way...Has any body ordered a replacement windshield off UPD for a 222 CCP?

I tried to order a custom windshield for my 200 CCP.  My console is a one-off, so none of their AS specific models would work.  I measured following the guidelines on the UPD website including the requested photos and sent in the quote request form.  I received an email questioning one of my measurements and responded.  That was the end of it.  No response, no quote and no response to any of my follow ups.  I guess the guy has more work than he needs.  I may try again with them, but not before considering every other option.

I have had a similar experience with them. No response. Pity.

It doesn't look that hard does it? Thanks for the link. Regrettably Australia is too far away to DYI. I was really hoping someone had done it before and had the dimensions.

Try Creative Acrylics in Pensacola. He might have the dimensions. Talk to Mike.  850-479-8889
He just made a new one for my 222 of course no shipping for me but turned out great and ran about 250 out the door.
UPD can be a pain to deal with as they want everything done by email and never ever answer their phone!
If you can get the old one to him he can match it if he has no dimensions.
