    I'm not sure if cleetus will ever see this but a couple of river recommendations from a Florida boater.
    Clean your windows with plexus and then ceramic coat with a kit from Amazon. Keep that water off your windshield.
    Install a metal D ring in the back and front of the cockpit. Paracord all items to brass clips and clip them on to the D ring.
    Lastly you can mount aftermarket utv waterproof wipers to the windows might help.
    Hope to see yall out on the water, I'm running the quintrex outboard race boat. Lake Harney to lake Monroe run and wekiva

At the very least, all of you should be wearing beltline floaters to help the body float a little in case someone does get hit in the head. Also, this is not the first time you have had three people, they really need two handles installed on the back deck. Use 12" SS grab bars that are put in tubs and showers. Three mounting holes on each end, strong enough to catch an adult falling.

      Yeah its not because you can't swim, its because if you get knocked out, at least you will float to the top.

    What could go WRONG? But when riding in a boat with Cleatus, life vests highly recommended and I'm a good swimmer 🤣

      That’s like when someone asks if you want your helmet or a fire extinguisher. Well damn it, now that you said something I’m going to need it. That’s usually how I look at it😂
