Like Bill my ports are all openers(now bronze NFMs). Over the years it seems that Mark Plastics( http://www.socalsail.com/bg/co/mark-plastics/ ) is where everyone seems to point to for fixed portlights. I would guess the originals just came out of the Hunter workshop.

Sorry, didn't read carefully enough. You must have the latter version h37c.

PO replaced 6 large port with NFM's. I need to replace the smaller forward 4. I asked NFM if they made smaller ports. They said no.

Bill, what the hey!? My small ports are NFM. The big ones are 7 x 14 and the small ones are 5 x 12, an exact fit. . .almost: http://www.newfoundmetals.com/catalog/pg04.html .

Note: the large ones should be 7 x 15 which were not available in 2000 when I replaced my Grays, thus the 7x14s.

I like that!! I will pursue them further, but I talked Mr. NFM at the St pete Boat show, and he said no small ports, so I let it drop. BTW are you in Florida?

I wonder if he meant they were out of stock? I know they are made overseas, or were. No Bill, had to put off the trip again. Now thinking late April.
