Pearson 36-2 porthole screens

[Handelman]

Hello,

I'm trying to source replacement porthole screens for my 1985 Pearson 36-2 but don't know the window size or model number.

I could go look at the boat but it is waiting for me in Key West while I am enjoying the summer in Maine. (It's like having a long-distance relationship.)

Any help would be great.

Johnathon, your ports should be Bomars and you can order the screens from them. However, I have to say that they are plastic, difficult to install properly without gaps and have a tendency to disappear or pop out. A better solution is to use your main hatches with screens as they allow more air into the boat. We've cruised over 16,000 miles in the tropics with no AC and never had a bad night on the hook. Good luck and good sailing, Ron
