Fitting Boat Windows

    Hi,

    I've recently acquired a very old Vivacity 20 bilge keeler from a friend. He had been restoring it over the past two years and had enough so I've taken up the gauntlet. The boat has been completely stripped, repainted and is ready for reassembly i.e. all the hard work has been done. Except it has no windows fitted, the original ones were broken and discarded at some stage.

    So I have 4 large holes in the cabin and some perspex - can anyone point me in the direction of someone or someplace that could fit or provide a kit to make new flush fitting windows?

    Thanks in Advance
    YB

    You can get the seals here http://www.sealsdirect.co.uk/shopping.asp?intDepartmentId=4 then make cardboard cutouts of the windows and transfer them to the perspex.
