Joel,
South Jersey is sharing that weather, reporting 12.5 F and NW 35 to 45 knot
winds, gusting to over 55. The ocean swells are 7 to 11 ft.
Delaware Bay swells are 3 to 6 ft. Tides expected to be 2 feet lower than
normal due to high winds.
We got only 2 inches of snow since yesterday, but t
Chuck,
What do you mean by "fixed windows?"
Aren't all good ports (windows) fixed to the coachouse, glued on, bolted on
or other? I think maybe the ports that were glued on with Plexus and found
on the 80's C&C designs were done that way mostly for appearance and not
necesarily to add strength...
Chuck, half of the boats at our club's pier are aground, with all of the water
blown out of the creek. Hope your boat is ok if you're still in the water at
Broad Creek. I spent the day iceboating yesterday, but staying home today!

I have been reading the recent posts about windows and I thought that some
might be interested to hear of my experience replacing the portlights on my
1989 30 MKII. Please note that I just started the on-boat part of the project
yesterday and the work is not yet complete.

Hi Dwight,
By "fixed", I mean they "don't open". I also agree that the newer frameless
windows aren't better than framed, and I don't think I implied that they add
strength to what could have been a solid fiberglass coach roof. I just think
the coachroof is stronger with the windows intact, lik
I used three eighths cast acrylic. That matched my factory windows and deck
lights. I used half inch on my hatches and companionway. Also matched my
original. Quarter inch seems thin.

On the topic of C&C hull strength, while reviewing the original build drawings
from the C&C collection at the Museum of the Great Lakes I noticed that the
43's built after hull #8 had an additional "fore gripe".

I agree — my 30mkI had 3/8” acrylic, as well.

This sounds well thought out but I have one thought on this. You say you
painted the inside of the plexiglass black, the substrate you are now adhering
to is paint and not the window itself. I'm thinking you may see the window
separate from the VHB tape and leave the paint behind on the tape as

Saw your picture. Not sure what I'm seeing besides some rust and water stains?
Could you be more specific as to why you are replacing your backstay
chainplate? Has it failed? Is it loose, or broken?

Dan,
Contact the Museum of the Great Lakes and ask the curator if they have the
backstay chain plate drawing from the original build.
Calypso was also built in 1970. The museum had drawings of most custom
fittings including the chain plates.
The museum's contact info was sent out on this list
It looks like the backstay backing plate has disintegrated and the plywood
gusset has rotted out at the transom end. If I'm close, the DIY sequence is:
grind away bad stuff
replace with good stuff
A good resource is the WEST System guide to repairing fiberglass boats.
