  • Windshield clasps for Dorsetts

    Does anyone know where I could buy two new clasps for my Catalina windscreen? It is a bit unnerving when the thing bounces in harmony to hitting the waves at 30 mph. :boater1:

    Is that a Taylor Made? Looks a lot like the one I picked up from Marty. If it is, there should be a channel on the underside that will take hex bolts (with some convincing on the grinder). Bolt it to the deck and it will never move again.

      Thanks. Never really understood nor appreciated the hinged windshield idea Dorsett came up with. Will bolt 'er down.

        No problem. I bought some SS hex bolts at the local Coast and then had to cut them down quite a bit to fit. The ones that came with the windshield were either broken, missing or too short. They should be little rectangles when they fit. Flatten the heads and then cut the sides to fit and you will be good to go!
