Spartan Porthole alternative?

[Chip Kennedy]

Hi All

Over the weekend I removed one porthole out of my boat to rebed, service and install a new gasket on it. This porthole looks very much like Spartan's Blue Water Series, however the dimentions do not match any in their catalog. I called them and was told that if it wasn't in their catalog, they did not make it. Although my boat is not a Cape Dory, just about all fittings, thru hull valves cleats, etc. came from Spartan Marine.

Does anyone know of an alternative manufacturer of portholes?

Thanks in advance for any help:)
