replacements for fixed windows

[hugo]

I would like to replace the acrylic in my fixed windows on my 27' 1977. Does anyone have a link to a supplier. I first thought that I could replace just the acrylic itself without replacing the frame. But I don't think this will work.I'd appreciate all responses.

Looking for alternatives

I am with you. I have two constantly leaking fixed sky-lights. They are also starting to look kind of poor.One alternative might be a opening hatch ( possibly with sun shades build into them ).If not one that opens, at least one that is robust, could be walked on and will handle loads without leakage.

side ports

i'm actually looking for replacements for my two fixed side ports. the ones that are about 24" and sort of rectangular with rounded corners. there are two different shapes on each side.Hugo

Portlights

If you have the old Grey Enterprises portlights, try www.pompanette.com. They have a pretty wide selection of the windows used (and replacement parts as well) in the older Hunters. We've been able to track down replacement windows and parts through them.

Possible Sources

Looking at some of the posted photos of that era 27, the rear-most port with the sloping aft edge looks like the one on my 78 H30. The rectangular one forward of that looks similar in construction. I believe these were made by Marks Plastics, their info can be found using an Archive search. An alternative is Bomon in Canada(website www.bomon.com). They will custom manufacture ports of any shape or size. They are aluminum frames and either Lexan or tempered glass. Run an archive search on Bomon and you should find some previous info I have posted. At the time I ordered mine, they were only about $20 each more than the plastic framed units from Marks with similar delivery.
