5hp honda on 535

[JohnAngus535]

Hi, I have just purchased a shetland 535 for £100. The boat has no wondows in it and I just wanted to know if anyone on here has made their own windows for their 535? I was thinking of 5mm perspex but I am open to ideas. I was looking at buying windows but I just cannot afford them I was also wanting to know how well a 5hp honda (5 years old) would cope just for moving it a mile or so on a calm day? Thanks

Hi

most people do make their own windows and then you can either buy the window rubber or bolt them in. I would go for the former.

re honda 5 yes it will do fast walking pace with ease.

enjoy

Hi thanks for the reply. i think I will go for 5mm perspex cut about an inch bigger than the hole and bolted on to the outside .
