Have a couple of questions. Is this a similar boat as the newer 06-09 H190? I checked the specs on both and it appears to be almost identical. Next, does anyone know how to tighten the windshield? It looks like my whole windshield is a little loose and when I close the center section it doesn't line up correctly with the driver side windshield. What other issues should I look for? Plus, the boat didn't come with carpet or bimini top. Where can I get those for a decent price? Thanks and hoping to have many good years with my Horizon 180.

Loose windshields are not uncommon, with age. The frame securing screws are typically under the rubber trim that is fit into the outer rails of the framework. As you tighten it all down, the alignment may work itself out, otherwise, work on pushing/pulling the framewrk into position as you tighten things up.

Carpet can be purchased through a FW dealer, but is rather expensive, as is original canvas. You may want to look at an aftermarket bimini top kit, or check out what a local canvas shop can do.

jman, give me a call or send me a PM and I'll get you on the right track for some carpet. I can also send you out some free carpet samples if you'd like.
