<div><font size="3"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">All Perry boats had a shield. It protected the viewport from a lot of nicks and scratches, plus aided in heavy impact protection as the water between one and the other served as a sort of shock absorber. The difference between us and them was (and is) that our viewports stayed pretty much pristine, while the Hycos (and the Perrys later on when the new owners didn't know what the shields were actually for) had their ports hanging out bare as a baby's butt so that every dropped wrench and loose shackle seemed to end up bouncing off the window on the way by. The JSLs </font></font><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="3">needs a lot of polish and elbow grease during annual maintenance to keep them shiny. Trust me.
