I'm looking for bronze portholes for my ty weekender and tried bristol bronze but they have been impossible to reach. Where else can I find them and how much do they cost? Thanks

Tim,

I replaced mine with 4" bronze portlights from ABI they were about $80 and made the little Ty look $500 better.Look for them in the back of Cruising World or do a search. I do not have their number.

Tim,
I ordered the portholes from Bristol Bronze and they were worth the wait. The plus for using the Bristol Bronze ports is that they are an exact fit and the outside ring is the same size, which would please Carl.
Cheers,

Dear Tim,

I am sorry that you had trouble reaching us by phone. It is the nature of our business that we get a lot of phone calls during the Spring and Summer. The best time to reach us by phone is 1:00 to 5:00 PM. You can always reach us by e-mail through our web site.

We have another batch or Typhoon Ports in the process of casting right now. They should be cast and machined by the end of this month. They are exact duplicates of the plastic ports that so many Typhoons were produced with. Ours are cast in Bronze and use real glass instead of Plexiglass. In addition you do not have to cut away part of your cabin to get them to fit as you do with other non original ports that are on the market. Our ports are $55.00 each plus 10% shipping and handling.


If you would like to place an order you can do so by using the order form that is part of our web site or if you wish you can call me at 401-625-5224.

I used the bronze opening ports from West Marine. Altho not original, they look awfully good. I can email a picture if you like.
