David I too have a C&C 35-1 with old style aluminum windows that need gaskets replaced. First dibs to Dennis of course on the extra 80ft you have as he started this chat, but I would be interested in buying some from you. My email is [email protected] if you want to email directly. Again first dibs to Dennis but if you still have some left let me know. Cheers James Neirinck
