Does anybody know the manufacturer of this combination fixed and opening port on a 1987 Pearson 27?

Happy 4th of July everyone!

Dave, I'm sure you've identified the opening port as a Beckson (or perhaps a Gray). It looks like they just installed it inside the fixed outer portlight which had holes cut where the opening port was located.

Or are you looking for the plastic trim inside?

Hi Stu, it is not a Beckson or Gray, or the predecessor to Gray, the PiHy's, but thanks. There are no markings at all, the dogs do look like Gray. This is the 2nd customer in as many weeks with this boat, I think it came this way from the factory, actually the other one had a slider in the middle instead of a flip up opening port.

Dave, interesting. The dogs look like the old Becksons too, until I swapped them out for the newer flip latches. I still have a few of the old ones left where I couldn't get clearance for the new flippers with the wood trim below.

It's a Beckson PB525 series, with optional inside rain louver. Some Becksons have the knobs, while most have the cams. I just installed a pair of small opening Beckson ports which came with the knobs. I've also installed the inside louver on a boat I no longer own, which replaces the screen but has its own bug screen.
