Hi
All the hatches and windows in my 1974 33 foot ¾ tonner are in need of
replacement. All are smoked plexiglass. It looks like they would be easy to
fabricate using the old ones as a template. Is that a reasonable assumption
or would it be smarter to just try to find the parts and order them?

This may seem like a trivial question but I just took ownership of a 1974 33

there is no water tank but it seems like there was one at some time. There

Funny you mentioned that. I found it curious that my cockpit drains are
below the waterline. All my cockpit drains in my old boat were (just) above
the waterline. That seems like a more prudent practice. Not sure the logic
