570 Portholes

Post by CherylMarie »

Hi All
Hope all's well and staying safe?

Need help with the outside diameter of the portholes on a 570? Cant get to mine at the moment but need to order stuff!

Thanks in advance

Me too with my 4+2! I measured outside and bearing mind the age, I did inches as well as mm. Mine is 8.5 inches wide to the outside of the frame and a wierd 5 and a bit for the glass. Will have to get under the cover to open the porthole and see the hole.

eBay and Amazon have lots which isn’t always helpful. Are Seaflo a good brand? Most show a drawing with measurements, ABS thermoplastic and 316 stainless fittings are a must. I also wondered about the thickness of the GRP. Safest would be to remove one but mines on a trailer at home so easier!

Any thoughts out there would be good.
