I'd like to know how trawler owners typically screen the sun from beating in on their pilot houses when not underway? I've seen some who use outside material (Pfifertex or similar?) that snaps on the window frames - that is apparently quite expensive. I assume there is a similar method that uses a different material and snaps (or fastens somehow) to the inside of the windows - this is probably less expensive but not sure what to use. Then I suppose there's the really cheap end of the spectrum that uses those folding window foil reflectors people put in their cars but they never cover correctly, don't attach to anything neatly and look extremely tacky (hope I haven't offended anyone here). Would love to heat some suggestions please and thx in advance - this forum has been so helpful in the few short months I've been a member.
