Welcome to EY.org !

You picked a really nice boat :egrin:

Are you talking about opening ports or fixed ones ? Or maybe you are talking about the large aft ones ?

If you want opening ports the SS ones from newfoundmetals can hardly be beat. If you are talking about the aft ones the best source is probably Bomon (not to be confused with Bomar).

Lots of threads here discussing both and lots of experience too.

Sven thanks for the advice they are non opening ports..I would like to keep the same style window/port can these be bought from a dealer cut to the right dimensions??

Hi,

Yes Bomon makes non-opening custom aluminum windows for a pretty reasonable (boat wise) price. We are having our large aft ones being made right now for about $300 each, tinted 1/4" glass.

Alain at Bomon is the person to talk to.
