[C320-list] Plexiglass for fixed, frameless ports

[Dave Hupe]

I replaced all 4 elongate, stationary plexi (actually cast acrylic) windows several years ago.  I got them directly from Catalina (not Catalina Direct). They have templates for these but requested that I send them tracing of each.  Yes, Dow 795 was used fir the sealant.
The supplied new lenses have special beveled edges.  
I wrote an article about this that was published in the Mainsheet magazine.

I contacted Warren at Catalina Yachts and he recommended to use 0.220 plexiglass and Corning 795 sealant. He also told me to call him back in about 60 days to get one made.  Maybe if you call him at Catalina Yacht parts department it might speed things up.
