Leaking Middle Windshield on 3800 open
#4
The Tiara 3800 Open is actually a very dry boat for an express. Certain sea conditions and wind are going to put water on the windshield no matter how good the hull design is. The other thing that can affect how much water ends up on the windshield is vessel trim and speed.

That aside, if water is pouring in from the top of the windshield opening section, there is an issue with the alignment or the gasket. Take a good look at the opening section when it is closed. Is it crooked and not flush all the way around? If that is all good, open the windshield and check the gasket. Make sure it's not pinched, pulled free, broken or missing.

Good luck.
