Rejuvenating Plastic Ports

Maybe everybody knew this, but I finally sorted out how to get the panes out the the frames on these. 

The problem was getting the plastic frame split open to free the crazed acrylic pane.  I finally figured out that several laps around the seam with a matt knife does the trick. The exploded window frame shown below.

I need 4 more of these 4″ x 14″ ports if anyone has some to sell. Either color.

Surveyor

I was introduced to the surveyor. The surveyor, Matt asked if I knew his father, Robert Harris? Robert Harris wrote Racing Cruising and Trimarans, the book that got me started in this. Robert also helped me with a deadbeat customer and the courts once. Yes! What a great surprise. Great surveyor too. Matt Harris. www.harrismarinesurveys.com

And the book.  I need to take a better pic than I found online.
