My original 1973 Fuller port is working as well as ever. I am not sure where 
water gets in between ????

I looked at the Fuller direct replacement but was spooked by the way water 
worked itself between the molded pieces.  The Lewmar also spiffed up the 
cockpit.  Maybe a newbie boarding the boat for the first time will think it is 
only 20 years old not 40+.

Amazingly, the Fuller ports are still available:

The Lewmar portlight is replacing a very old Fuller Brush white plastic 
portlight that may have served well when new but after years of racing abuse it 
allowed water into the core.  The leak was between the molded portlight pieces 
and not readily apparent.
