Hi all, Just want to say thanks to all for the helpful comments on here. I have to change the port side cabin window this spring. Not looking forward to it but all your suggestions sure does help. I'm new to sailing, been power boating for about 18 years but just bought my first sail boat last July. I've sailed on other people's boats but being the skipper is a whole new thing. Thanksfor the comments/help. Munden Halifax, NS S/V Rostral C&C 33 Mk II

Wolford Subject: Stus-List Window replacement Listers: I know this topic has been covered ad nauseum, but I have two questions about window replacement: 1) It appears that most of you who have done the VHB tape method like 3M 4941 instead of 5952. However, when I contacted 3M and explained what I was using it for, 5952 was recommended. Any thoughts or comments on this? 2) It appears fairly well settled that 1/2" width is preferred (maybe due to Don Casey), yet some of you have mentioned coloring the area behind the window that is not taped to improve the appearance. The window "cavity" (for lack of a better term) for my windows sit is 3/4" all the way around (except for possibly the rounded corners). Why shouldn't I just use 3/4" wide tape? Have at it, and thanks. _______________________________________________ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions. Each and every one is greatly appreciated.
