Stus-List Fixed port ahead of slider, C&C 37/40+ Hello all,I am (finally!)
getting ready to replace the fixed port ahead of the slider on my C&C 37/40+.
We successfully replaced the slider which had turned to rather ugly, clouded
blue plexiglass rather than the original bronze color as a result of exposure
to UV. The fixed one is 22" x 31" and is presumably stuck down using Plexus as
the side windows were. In this case, the Plexus is 1 1/2" wide. I am thinking
that when I get the VHB tape to replace the Plexus, I should go with tape that
is 1.25" wide instead of and inch and a half to allow some room for the Dow 795
sealer to go between the deck and the tape to ensure a water tight seal.
Coming up with tape (or a combination of tape widths to equal 1 3/8" is proving
problematic.Do you agree with my proposed approach, or should I just go with 1
1/2" wide tape? Bruce Whitmore1994 C&C 37/40+ "Astralis"Madeira Beach, FL(847)
