New S&S Swan 411 Portlight hI all, the port portligth of my S&S SWAN 411/39, who recently acquired to rehabilitate was stolen (as almost the starboard one (see photo attached)). Can anyone tell me where I can purchase it?. Unfortunately I have not had any response from Swan spares.

Dear Matteo, thank you very much for your quick and precise answer. Among the types of "traditional" included in Goiot page I can not find any who have screws. Do you mean these portligths are custom model?. Many thanks, David. |

Dear Daniele, Thank you very much for your answer and references. Goïot traditional portlights are best fit to the measures I took in the boat.
I also have to put the two cockpit portligths ( I must say I have to put all hatches and port ligths..) and I cannot find any equivalent into the “traditional” ones. I suppose both are also Goïot, as a friend already told me, but I do not know what type. He also told me they can be opened. I would like to confirm this in your case, because it has a very important influence on the value of the STIX number.
Fair winds!, David |

Daniele The amount of water coming in when opening an inclined porthole can be reduced by taking care that the frame drain holes, visible at the lower corners in the picture above, are open. In some cases it may be necessary to change the angle of the drains. If the glass is recessed into the frame an added wedge of Perspex or mastic at the lower edge would also prevent water from standing there. Best regards Lars |

For whatever it is worth - the previous owner of my boat thoroughly refit her. For his own reasons, he favored stainless steel, and many items that were originally aluminum on the boat are now stainless, including the portlights. |
