Default Windshield

I have a 2000 Shabah 182. The name of the manufacturer is Water Bonet. Could this be a new supplier to Mariah

    No, Water Bonnet was acquired by Taylor Made back in 2005 but prior to that was doing some of the sub-manufacturing for their windshields while Taylor Made was upgrading their facilities.

    They may be a new source for some replacement windshields but i dont know what records they might have kept prior to their takeover by Taylormade. I suspect its possible that since things were beginning to go downhill for Mariah by 2000 and some suppliers / vendors were walking away, it may be that Mariah sourced a few windshields directly from Water Bonnet Ltd given their lower cost. We'll probably never know for sure.
