Hi James,

How will the Lewmar porthole handle the curve on the cabinside?

My neighbour is doing something similar on his Newport 41 and there looks to be a 1/4" gap fore & aft with the middle in contact with the cabinside.

        Cheers, Russ

Rick,
The cutouts in my cabin house are currently 24"x6". I'm planning to use the Lewmar standard portlight size 4. It requires a cutout of 24 11/16" x 6 3/4" so I'll have to do a little trimming on the cabin house to fit them. The corner radius is looks to be very similar, so I don't anticipate any problems. Defender sells them for $325 each. I wouldn't think that your boat would have different ports, but I guess it is possible.

Opening ports are on the wish list for my 38, but I plan to replace the two forward portlights. I've not found any that are 27 x 7 to fit the openings. What are you using, and how much will the ports cost?

My glass shop didn't want to mess with the spline and gasket, so he glued the plexi in with the same polyurethane that they use on car windshields. Looks pretty good, very similar to the original grey and he only charged me $20 per window, plexi included. I'm going to do the forward two window this way and replace the aft two windows with opening Lewmar portlights.
