[C320-list] spinnaker/whisker pole fitting & portlights

[wdoc1 at aol.com]

Any suggestions for proper attachment of spinnaker/whisker pole (track with car vs fixed ring?)
And regarding the opening main salon portlights- lenses in mine are totally shot with extensive crazing/cracks. Looks like they are the older variety which are part of a complete unit. I'm told by Catalina Direct the entire hatch must be removed/replaced...anyone have experience with that/suggestions?

Yes, I bought mine from Catalina- they are technically called

DEADLIGHTS

They come with beveled edges for perfect fit.  I also bought special adhesive from Catalina for installation.
