Does anyone know how to re-bed windows in a '77 vintage C&C 27 Mk III? I had one pop out during a race yesterday (we got a 2nd in 20 kn winds, gusting to 25 or more).

If they're the originals, retained by a rubber gasket, the fact that one of them popped out suggests they're overdue for replacement. South Shore Yachts in Niagara-on-the-Lake stocks the two extrusions and charged me $130 for enough to do my Mark III this summer. I converted the one above the head to an opening port. I had mine by mail within three days of ordering them by phone. It's a bit of a no-brainer job to install the new ones if you follow the instructions South Shore packages with the extrusions. As for the ports themselves, any reputable plastics shop will cut new Acrylic or Lexan; I opted for the latter because it's inherently stronger even though some people say it's more susceptible to UV degradation. My local shop, Canus Plastics, charged me $30 to do the two big ports and one small one, using my old ones as templates. Good luck.
