Hi all I’m new here so bare with me. I’m trying to find a replacement windscreen for my 2001 dauntless 16.
If anyone can point me in the right direction would be much appreciated.

G'day Scott -
The closest Whaler dealer to you is in Queensland,
way too far away. In case you need it -
Queensland Marine Centre
Unit 10, 71 Shipper Drive
Coomera Queensland 4209
Australia
(07) 5519 9035
https://qmc.com.au/boston-whaler/on-whaler/
The windscreen is made from clear plexiglass so most sign shop can bend it for you. If there is no shop within driving distance, you can fabricate it yourself with a bit of guidance. You can buy the sheet on
www.Amazon.com.au
If you have the old one that will help heaps. If not, Your best bet is to make a cardboard template of the windshield. We can also ask an owner to measure theirs for rough dimensions. A photo of it is attached below.
If you need hardware, let us know and we can post details.
Let us know what you need.

Queensland will get a local shop to make one.
Would start in Perth first.
The "go-to" replacement vendor, UDP Plastics, in the US is several months behind in orders and the shipping to Oz, and VAT would be just stupid money.
Keep us updated on how it goes.
