Re: M_Boats: montgomery_boats Digest, Vol 153, Issue 20
Thanks Bones and thanks Bob to. I am looking for the non oval ones Bob. Mine are like the ones on Bones boat which are rectangles. So Bones Bob was talking about another company being out of biz but the name was different from New Found Metals. I am assuming New Found is still around..? SailorBoyJosh -----Original Message----- Josh, My buddy Theo bought 6 new bronze ports for his M23 from New Found Metals. I helped him install them. He purchased them at the Chicago Strictly Sail event and got a package deal. NOT inexpensive but they sure are nice.

Since ABI Marine went out of business, those nice Bronze opening ports are unavailable. :-( I switched to Lewmar Stainless opening ports. They come with bug screens and are Ocean Rated.

New found metals is still very much in business. You may also want to look at Lewmar's size 0 and size 1 opening portights. One or the other will be size appropriate to Jerry's M23. :: Dave Scobie On Nov 27, 2015 1:48 PM, "Josh Bloom" <josh@bloomcommercial.com> wrote:
