    Options on stopping wind draft from the bow?

    I was wondering what some good products are to close off the bow or just the section below the window on my 06' 210

    You can order a curtain to cover the area from CC or have one make at a canvas shop.
    My 08 210 came with one from the factory.

      Any chance you could put a pic of what your '08 210 curtain looks like and how it is attached? Probably with snaps, but it would be cool to see what it looks like.

        Mine is the factory one with the snaps as well. It is a $145 option from factory, but that must be to cover parts & install etc. If your boat has the snaps already,you may be able to pick up just the canvas cheaper, or have the local upholsterer whip one up. They are cheesey, but effective.

          This is how my 206 came from the factory, snaps all around including the center glass frame, my 99' came with a snap cover over the entire open bow, either one did the job.

            You could do it my way. I put a white square throwable in that area. With the windshield shut, it works great. It's the cheap route, but I only use it a couple of times a year.

                I made a cushion for mine. I used Black vinyl. (I would NOT reccoment that) If I did it over again I would use White of try and find a match for my other bow cushions. Looks nice and makes a nice 'playpen' with the walkthrough cushion in place.

                  I use the bow cushion on my 211 and it works pretty good.

                    I had a made a snap-in wind block for my old boat. Just went to the local trim shop with measurements and they cut a piece of sunbrella to fit, sewed a seam around the perimeter and put in snaps. I screwed the male snaps into the boat to match and was good to go. Ran about $70 IIRC.

                        Maybe different measurements for your 210, but the curtain that came with my 211 is roughly 16" wide at the bottom flaring to 19" on the top and is 31" tall. The tag on it says its a "Taylor Made" brand, with the boat model number; they might have the specs to make one up for you unless you decide to have it made locally.
