Please describe the project specifications

This is a Large 3 sided enclosure. This customer wanted more visibility and an updated look to his Egg Harbor


What is unique or complex about the project?

This enclosure was a very clean and very functional enclosure. We kept as much glass as possible for better visibility. The glass on the sides extends much lower than the original enclosure giving this boat a cooler look. We also made larger openings for better airflow. In the front two corners we made the glass wrap around instead of having zippers in the corners, it really makes for an amazing view from the inside and also looks cleaner on the outside. Also the sides are installed with snaps at the bottom which are completely hidden from the outside. There is an additional flap on the inside that the snaps are attached to. This makes the enclosure look a lot cleaner than staring at all the snaps.
