They are the smallest size (Size 0, I think) in the Lewmar Standard Portlight series. I think they will be well worth the expense and trouble to install. I may put two more in the inboard cabin sides (above the cockpit seats)to get more airflow to the bunks.Scott B.

They end up being almost the same size as the original windows I cut when I had the outside flanges on. One advantage of this method is that they are easy to replace if one gets damaged.<br /><br />I plan to begin the installation of these tomorrow and will post photos of the process, which should explain the spacers. I'll send you an email as well.Scott B.
