I own a J-35 (#253) and am trying to come up with a strategy to solve the leaking problem on all of the nibo/bomar opening ports on the boat. Kits are available for the forward
and quarter berth ports but not for the four that are located in the main cabin which are the worst offenders. Nibo has discontinued that size. I have looked into replacing all with lewmar ports but the four in themain cabin are approximately 1-3/4 shorter in length and about 3/4 in height than the nibos. The forward and quarter berth ports are within an 1/8" to the existing cutouts and overallsizes and should "drop in".

I would certainly appreciate any info on possible solutions. My e-mail address is dheffer@dpmail.com and phone # is 1-781-939-5511 Received on Mon Nov 13 12:05:18 2000
