Just Bob Cap'n of all things wet Admiral Registered: 03/08/06 Posts: 1304 Loc: Chalfont, PA	Yes. It keeps the sun from beating down on the glass and warming up the interior, as well as keeping curious eyes from looking in while walking by on the dock. _________________________ "Annabo": 2005 Larson Senza 206 w/5.0L Bravo III

Cap'nBrian Vice Admiral Registered: 08/04/04 Posts: 494	Since windows appear to be closed, I am guessing more for shade because a boat like that would have window coverings/curtains inside. If the windows were open on a nice day for breeze and the curtains pulled back, could be for privacy too.

ABoater Admiral Registered: 02/04/04 Posts: 1020 Loc: San Francisco Bay Area	Since it's a trawler (probably a CHB 34), they must have blow-boater blood in them. So it makes sense...
