Happy New Year, everyone!
I have an '81 Montauk and am looking for a new windshield. Does anyone know where to purchase a replacement?
Thanks.

While a local fabricator can make one using the old one, UPD Plastics offers them as well.

Digging up an old thread so I don't start a new one...couldn't find anything using the Search function.
Does anyone know the correct tint used by BW for a 1987 classic Montauk windshield? Mine is cracked and I want to order a replacement from UPD Plastics. I believe the Bronze tint was used by the factory, but not sure which level of tint. Here is the link: http://updplastics.com/Boston_Whaler_Montauk_1987_17ft.htm
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Light Bronze, #2404 if you want to match the original.
I ordered one from UPD in October for my 15' sport CC. At the time they said it would be 7-8 weeks. I need to check back on its progress.

Thank you Dennis. Seems a bit strange that you haven't yet received your windshield. Please reply and let me know what they say after you speak with UPD.

UPD PLASTICS TAKE FOREVER, I just ordered mine 2 or 3 weeks ago and told me it would take 6 weeks! So I'll see if mine is done in a couple more weeks!

We had the dark bronze made by UDP, thicker size. Not original, but looks awesome, and the thicker plexiglas should hold up better with the kids. Did take about 6-8 weeks, and they aren't the most customer friendly folks around.
