Windscreen trim 273

Post by AFD »

I’m assuming the windscreen frames are pretty similar on a lot of cobalts?

My 2014 - 273 has a piece of black extruded plastic inserted at the base of the screen to cover the fixing screws, purely cosmetic. As luck would have it it must have blown off at some point when the boat was being delivered a few weeks ago.

I approached the local dealer who advise cobalt no longer use that material supplier and so far they can’t source the piece as a spare part, seems strange as you’d assume it would be a fairly common part so surely they have a new supplier or alternative?

Anyone suggest where I could source a piece, see attached for profile.

Cheers

Wow. That’s surprising AFD...especially since your boat is less than seven years old.

Have you tried GreatLakesSkipper?

I’m thinking yours is a Taylormade product so you may want to reach out to Taylor marine.
Worst case replace it with another screw cover strip on both sides so it matches .

It’s a always harder to find things in OZ.
Fortunately the dealer came through and has located a piece.
Thanks for your help.
