Hi Dennis

In 2003 I bought the gasket from South Shore Marine.  Actually I even bought 
new (sitting for 30 years) 35 inch aluminum frames as well.  At the time 
someone told me I could have tried an RV supplier for the spline.  That was for 
a Niagara 26 BTW

Subject: Stus-List Old style aluminum frame portlight gasket

Almost time to replace the lenses in Touche's old style aluminum frame 
portlights.  The "D" shape EDPM inner seal is easy to find at big box stores.

However, I can only find the gray outer gasket at Holland Marine for $5/foot.  
Gaskets for newer hatches at hatchmasters.com<http://hatchmasters.com> (Select 
Plastics site) are in the same price range.  Internet search reveals some that 
are close but not exact.

I can reuse the old gasket and have some old gasket if need be.  However, I'd 
like to find another source for the gasket at a reasonable price.

Some on the list claim it's a readily available storm door or window gasket or 
such.   I've taken a sample of the gasket to several glass shops and door 
repair places in my area with no luck at all.

Can anybody find a manufacturer, supplier or part number for the exact 
replacement gasket?  Has anybody found a similar gasket that worked?  If so, 
what is part number?  There's a lot of us that would like that information.
