Post by kjg1951 »

What would have been the reason to have put plexiglass over the back windows as shown in the pics .. It's only on the salon aft windows any thoughts .. Should I remove the plexiglass ???

To trap spiders in between?
Seriously though, I have no idea why someone would do that.

Perhaps they thought it would be like double glazing.

My thought as well, Tree. Perhaps their normal slip is oriented so that the salon gets direct solar at the hottest time of day, and the P-glass helps as insulation.
