Does anyone know part # for portlight gaskets. My boat is a 98. I've called
Lewmar twice and we seem to get hung up on window size and gasket part
number. I can't find any part number or window size in all my brochures that
came with boat.
Or, does anyone have Lewmar parts ordering contact?
Thanks,
