I have a 248 Vista ad was wondering if anyone has ever considered installing a second portlight window in the aft cabin. Specifically, the aft bulkhead side. I would really like to install one there for better ventilation. Any thoughts?

That's a dang good idea! it would let more natural light in, way more ventilation... I see no reason why it could not be done!

You do it first and post the photos then I will add that to my list!

In my 248, there is removable piece that in runs the beam of the cabin and covers the bulkhead from the inside of the midcabin that's about 2 inches thick. I could forsee that being an issue, but if you figure out a way to make it work, more power to ya.

I pulled that paneloff yesterday on thought the same thing. We will see if I can come up with a solution. Any news on the ac install? My unit should be here by the end of the week. Hopefully I can start the install this weekend

No word from the mechanic yet. he's going to have my boat for about three weeks so we'll see. I REALLY hope he can get it installed. This guy is reputed as one of the best boat mechanics in central Indiana. (not that there is that many to pick from). I want to get my boat back to take some pics though of the kick a$$ stereo upgrade I did. I was really impressed with how it all turned out.

Sounds cool. Keep us posted. I will try to get somepics of the ac install. I am also installing underwater lights on the trim tabs and a few other small projects. Only 6 weeks left till she gets wet

If I wasn't going to Italy April 10th thru the 20th, it would be splashing in 2 weeks.
