An improved windscreen device is provided for use with open hull boats. The device has a pair of spaced apart, elongated spool posts each being angled outwardly and rearwardly with respect to the longitudinal axis of the boat. A fabric-like screen extends between the spool posts and has left and right portions which wrap around the spool posts. A pair of left and right brackets rotatably support the spool posts. A ratchet with a handle may be used for rotating the spool posts so that the slack in the screen may be tightened. The device is affixed to the sides of the hull by brackets which allow the windscreen to be quickly and easily engaged or disengaged from the boat. While in use, it provides adequate protection to the boat's occupants from wind and spray. When not in use, the device can be stored in a compact package.
