replacement gaskets for Bomar portlights

[Victoria28]

Hi again from Victoria BC, does anyone know of another source for replacement gaskets for the Bomar portlights on my '92 Catalina 28 (#246)? These are the opening ports in the forward area of the main cabin sides (P&S)- 5x12 with an opening pull knob labeled NIBO.
I checked the ones listed on CD's website and the one listed (Z 2599) is not the same dimensions and profile that I have ( not even close!). I do have the right port because I also ordered the screens ( Z2596) and they are a perfect fit. Bomar has informed me that they no longer carry this part.
Thanks,
Bill

Bill, I ordered some of the gasket material (6') a few years ago from Bomar/Lewmar in CT. it was VERY expensive and they would ONLY ship expensive overnight. When I inquired about other parts they said it might be cheaper to buy new ports next time they were on sale! The gasket when new has a trapezoidal profile about 3/8" slightly indented on the sloped sides, if that makes any sense. If I can find the small piece that was left-over (not good for anything, but too pricey to throw away,good chance I stuck it somewhere) I'll let you know.
BTW I do have a pair of the Z2329 gaskets from CD that DO NOT fit a '94 C270 or a similar vintage Capri 26 that are free to anyone who thinks they might fit their boat.
