Can anyone tell me what size Lewmar Portlights they used for this modification? Tried to look at past forum posts, but couldn't find anything.

Dan:
I used the 11-12 inch portlights. I think I suggested to somebody a while back that the next length up (14") should also fit. We usually use the Aft berth exclusively and the portlights are great.
BTW I am still waiting on a reply from the dealer about the bottom paint you e-mailed me about.

Ray: Thanks for the information, I think the Lewmar "0" or "1" would be within the range you suggested. I'm going to have them installed when I have the bottom painted. I finally tracked that down. They are going to lightly sand the hull, which the factory said if fine, and use Interlux 2000/2001 Epoxy Barrier Coat to a thickness of about 18 mils, or four coats, then they suggested using Interlux Micron CSC,two coats or three coats for the bottom paint. He said if I wanted to use Interlux VC17m that is was just as good so it really was my choice. They did suggest the Micron CSC first. This was there suggestion for "fresh water". The job is supposed to take about 7 days to take into account the time for proper drying. I'll let you know how it turns out...Thanks again, Dan
