I have a 98FW258 with oval portlights. The frame on the portlights slants inward so water collects next to the window and leaks in unless the 'dogs' are extremely tight - and even then a small amount of water gets in. Has anyone replaced the factory portlights with after market portlights? If so, what did you use, where did you find them, how difficult was it to install them?

Any other insights will be appreciated.

Thanks,

I have the same port lights on my 238 and the same problem with them leaking. Last year I made enquiries with Ryan Crawford from Winnisquam Marine. He managed to source some from the manufacturer who originally supplied Four Winns, as Four Winns say they are no longer available. Unfortunately I didn't go ahead with replacing them and just keep them closed all the time. So Ryan is your man!
Hope this Helps.
