    Frankly I was quite interested what it would be like burning through the back channels of Rainy Lake with tinted glass. In the past years both mornings and evenings can give off serious glare on a big body of water when running east and west. Yesterday believe it or not we say that orange burning ball in sky again!! Peering through the tinted windshield was awesome and even better than I had hoped!! There is little doubt this in my opinion not only looks nice, but will have aid fisherman operating in bright sunlight.

    I’ve included a pic attempting to illustrate what the driver will see being the tinted glass. Great job Skeeter Boat Center.

    Of course “Sho Time” needs sunglasses!!

    I’m guessing you don’t do a lot of night running? Let us know how that goes if you can. I would be interested to see how channel markers show up thru tinted glass

    Very True. I don’t do much night running unless we’re heading back from a resort….In that case tint or no tint I almost always look above the Windshield.

    Again today my customer was sold on tinting the windshield. He loved it!!

    Wheel boats are for water skiing.

    Just kidding Mr. Granrud, it looks to me like you’ve built the ultimate all around guide boat. A ton of forethought went into your boat, and it shows. The best part? You put all that work into the best big water hull ever built, money well spent.

    Best of luck to you for a great summer season at Rainy.

    Thanks Adam!!

    All kidding aside the boat was designed to fit my style of guiding here on Rainy lake. We just love it!!

    Yes IMO this is the best deep glass hull on the market.

    Good luck to you this season!!
