Rich, I like the sounds of this upgrade, as I was quite surprised to hear the lenses are only 1/8" thick. I suspect mine are original except over the nav table, which is either thinner or a softer material, as it flexes noticeably more, and there are slight bends in the frame. I don't have metal

Years ago I decided that I wanted to keep the original Beclawat portlight frames for the larger portlights on my C 30 rather than having custom long ones made. To me, their proportion looks just right on the boat. I didn’t like the 1/8” acrylic however - not very robust for that size of port. I

 Hi Charles, Mine was a grossly simplified description of the repair.  I was just trying to nudge a recollection.  The repair, as far as I recall, was very well done, I may be mistaken about the replacement of the anti skid section and they may have just used the area as a boundary.  My memory

The old 33-1 oval aluminum windows of that vintage are a close match in size to one of the Lewmar frames (the same one they used on the J 35). I replaced the frames on my ’78 34 (before they went to the go-fast windows), and the look stayed about the same – actually improved in my opinion.

Yup, that's correct. If there are only two wires coming from the paddlewheel transducer, it is likely this 'generator' type as a more modern hall effect transducer will have at least three wires (I think). Of course a broke wire or bad connection anywhere between the transducer and the instrument

Hi Danny, The deck repair you describe sounds very weak since they omitted some very important steps. Slapping the old deck skin down without doing the proper bonding will last for a while, but it does not reproduce the strength of the original deck and will very likely open up after some

So if I understand it correctly, the theory of operation for these generator style knot meters would simply be a 2 wire system and a voltage developed between the two? I would expect that a simple initial test would be for continuity between the two wires with the wheel stopped. Then spin the
