I have been rebedding all my windows and I have the 2 small ones up front left. The one over the head looks to be some type of slider window. I do not know if this is factory or not, the metal frame around it looks just like the other windows. This might of been a factory option? Do they make a direct replacement for this port light, i would like something that opens?

My boat had the same, but could not find any spare parts for it. I tried my best to restore it but it leaked like a sieve. I was lucky to find second hand ports in the swap meet section (someone was cutting his boat up) and was able to put a port with a fixed glass in it. No ventilation, but it does not leak. I have one small window left with a fixed pane. I might be willing to part with it.

I replaced my head port lights with the hinged version from Lewmar. Only had to cut a sliver of the cabin top to get them to fit. Catalina used Lewmars on the later models. They will compliment your existing aluminum frames on the main salon. Nice upgrade.

Do you happen to have a part number for this port? I looked on the website but did not see anything.
