But, as you mention they are always Ugly. For sure fitting them into an existing hull that was not built for it, would be very unwise. There needs to be careful structure changes if a window is fitted . . . . . I dreamed of a full length stripe that was a window set into the hull, with occasional openings inside. You could get the windows and a good looking boat. Alas, pretty hard to accomplish. The differing expansion and contraction of different materials with temperature changes, etc. Some of the Baltic's these days have opening 'doors' in the hull. You can imagine the engineering that goes into something like that to make the boat safe . . . . . Maybe in my next life . . . . . Rob Ball.
