Replacement Porthole for my Ty weekender

Post by Keyen »

Hi
Does anyone know where I can find a replacement porthole for my Tyhphoon weekender, I blew it out in a storm on Long Island Sound. She performed great despite getting broadsided and busting a porthole. Not bad for sustained winds of 40 knots and six foot seas!

I have two that I took out when I replaced them with Bristol Bronze portholes. They are the original "plastic/I look like chrome" type. Email me if you are interested and what they might be worth to you.

Dear John,

Your posting did not say if your ports were the Bronze ones that a few of the boats came with or the metalized plastic ones that most of the boats have. We currently make Bronze ports that replace the plastic ones. If you have any interest I can be reached at 401-625-5224

I removed two plastic portholes and replaced with bronze opening ports. For the price of shipping I will send them to you. Send me your address.
