I'm gonna check with my eye Dr and see if he can fix me up with something similar with prescription lenses. I think that would be the way to go. booze drippin LOL

A real driver doesn't need to see anything Don. Point and shoot. Run on instinct. Just make sure I'm not anywhere around.

Goggles as mentioned or i also use motorcyle glasses. they have a foam liner around the eyes to stop air from blowing by your eyes

I got a pair of perscription Wiley X they have a foam gasket and a strap that converts them from sunglasses to goggles

I have the black ops bricks
Wiley X | Tactical Black Ops Collection - Brick

those Oakley Fuel Cells that I have are pretty good, they have that wrap around style and you can get your prescription put in them.


Your eyes are only watering b/c all you eat are those nasty ass hotlinks, try some beano dude!

Don apparently your boat is so fast this is the only thing that can possibly work.

Any type of glass frame that has a closed in nose is what youre looking for to stop the air flow across your eyes. I ride moto and do the boat thing with prescription glasses, Mine are Ray-ban type and they work great. Also have a pair Tommy Bahama that work good to.

The trick is closing the nose area!

Man, I couldnt agree more, those Moutain View hotlinks make for some bad guts, but I would like to add, not only closing the nose area, but also the mouth. I'm sure the taste would be as un-savory as the smell.

I have to let out of it so my eyelids will quit flapping and watering the shit out of my eyes. Don't want to wear a helmet in a lake boat. And don't want to look like a dork either. Any suggestions?

As soon as you can see where you are going and feel more comfortable driving the boat at speed, it wont feel fast anymore, this can cost you several thousands of dollars in performance mods...

Just go bare faced and you would be amazed at the money and time this will save you. Not to mention how much less fuel you will burn because your constantly backing out of the throttle.

You have been warned, that is all...

I'm starting to wonder if I have any friends that really have to work for a living I cant play on the internet till I get home. Just ain't fair.

As soon as I have my eyelids removed I'm game. (I think that's cheaper than some of the $400
to $600 prescription goggles) LOL I think someone has lost there Frigging mind when they priced these things.
