I don't know, the place Robert buys his marine windows from but they said production is a little slower because of delays in the pipeline, That is why he needs the cabin in and the window openings cut.

In this shot you can see where the 24 x 24 Lewmar Tinted & Screened Hatch will go

This is sort of like watching a house be built.

Slow , Slow, Slow then something visible happens and Voila it looks more boatish.

 

[Reel Gone]

Love the lines of these boats

 

[Bent-Tip]

Nice looking build! Is there going to be a "brow" at the top front of the house above the wind shields?? A rounded one would look deadly!
