'74 E27 Forward Port Cutout

[SteveS]

Would anyone know the cutout on the forward portlight on a 1974 E27? The outside frame measures 6" x 14". I wish to replace it with an opening type. Also what type sealant and ports would you recommend? Thanks in advance.

I have Harken ports that open inward.

I have Harken ports that open inward. I don't know about the cut out size because they were already in when I bought the boat. I would recommend 3M 4800 sealant rather than 5200, just in case you ever need to remove them. It's a little more pliable. Here's a photo. Sorry, no close up.

You'll Probably Go Custom Cut...

Check out Lewmar - they have some really nice ports as well - althought you'll probably have to do a little routing (which is ok).

They also have really nice hatches - ones where you can easily replace the lexan.....

Thanks for the replies. I will check out the Harken & Lewmar ports.
