Bluewater Curved

American Marine Bluewater Curved Windshield

The Bluewater line of curved windshields provides the boat designer the ability to create unique boat styles which are critically important in today’s marketplace. Every windshield is custom designed to fit the customer’s deck, satisfying even the most difficult requirements. Unlike standard windshields, an American Marine custom windshield will enhance and complement the styling and functionality of the boat, setting it apart from the others.

The framing system of the Bluewater curved windshield is fully welded, which provides strength and durability not found in mechanically framed windshields. This construction technique allows for the use of front opening vents or side wing vents not available in many curved windshields. Boats designed for use in temperate climates can thus have the advantage of opening vents to increase cockpit air flow.

Available Finishes

Powder Coat
Powder coating offers an inexpensive, yet durable, semi-gloss finish. Our standard powder coat colors include black and white (akin to Vestal White Awlgrip™). Custom powder coat colors include Track White (Oyster White Awlgrip™) and Gloss White (Stark White Awlgrip™). Surface damage on dry paint, such as powder coat, may be somewhat difficult to repair.
Polyurethane Paint
Polyurethane paints provide a chemically resistant finish with a high gloss surface. Both Awlgrip™ and Imron™ polyurethane paints are available in any color shown on the standard paint chart. This type of paint can be repaired, buffed, and blended in with the original coating. As stated in the manufacturer’s literature, polyurethane paints are for use only above the waterline, and should not be in continuous contact with water or wet covers.
Anodizing
Anodizing provides the most durable, longest-lasting finish. The electro-chemical conversion of the aluminum surface strongly resists corrosion and allows the framing to remain bright. Our standard anodizing is a clear, brushed, bright-dipped finish.

Glazing Options

Tempered safety glass and acrylic plastic are available in various tints. The tints are contained in the glass or acrylic itself, not applied as a surface film. Tinting reduces the amount of visible and ultra-violet light allowed through the windows. UV protection can help prevent the fading of interior fabrics and heat build-up. The American Boat and Yacht Council recommends a 70% or greater light transmittance percentage for windows located in piloting areas. Low light transmittance may be desirable in salon and lower cabin windows. When selecting the appropriate tint, safety ramifications should always be considered.
