Set 2: 4 - New Found Metals 512SE - Stainless Steel 5" x 12" with 2" extended spigot

Portlights feature New Found Metals new adjustable friction tension to keep lights open.

Included butyl rubber and foam tape. Sold as sets only. Take one or take both. Located in San Diego, California

Asking Price: 715SE $350 (each) + shipping ... 512SE $260 (each) + shipping
PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO MAKE ME A FAIR OFFER

Re: Portlights - New Found Metals

Thank you all for viewing my portlights
Set 1 has been sold. I know they'll look great on your boat.

Re: Portlights - New Found Metals

The sale fell through so I still have both sets.
NOTE: The listed price is EACH. Also, the butyl and foam tape are not included but fastener bolts are. The bolts alone are a $30 and $20 value in themselves respectively.

Spring is here ... Get your boat out of storage ... replace those old portlights ... enjoy the fresh breeze through the opening ... go sailing

Re: Portlights - New Found Metals

Lowell,

You listed the 512SE as 7" x 15". Aren't 512's 5" x 12"?

Re: Portlights - New Found Metals

why yes, you're most correct ... I have asked a moderator to make a few corrections for me. Thank you

Re: Portlights - New Found Metals

Good luck Lowell.

If only the spigots were 1 1/2", we might be able to make a deal, but the 2" spigots would make things a bit bulky on the inside.

I'm sure someone will snatch them up, those are nice.

Re: Portlights - New Found Metals

the portlights mount on the inside ... the spigets extend toward the outside. If anything you might catch your shins on them. You could also cut them to the right length with an angle grinder.

Re: Portlights - New Found Metals

After waiting many months and re-buying an entire new set with 2-1/2" spigots two at a time I finally got all 10 portlights installed. I still have to clean up the squished out butyl rubber but I love 'em. ... I know these NFM portlights would make your boat sparkle, too. ... Sorry, I used the butyl rubber and screws for mine, but I can provide you with links to get your own. Amazon, Grainger, & McMaster Carr. PM me for details.

That boat is very...... yellow. Looks nice and clean though! I like your stainless grab rail you have running along the coachroof.
