Porthole screen replacement

Postby Kevin41North » Tue May 26, 2020 11:55 am

I have a 2009 Coastal 360 which has two oblong portholes, both with screen inserts, both showing signs of wear. They snap in and out easily, and would like to know if anyone has replaced these and where you went. West Marine doesn’t carry - they suggested this board.

Thanks in advance!

The last screens I replaced went like this, The screen frames (or the plastic oval) seemed to just have the screen material glued to the frame so I did the same thing. I cut a piece of screen(I bought at the depot the fiberglass kind)larger than the frame used a clear glue that doesn't dry brittle and glued the screen to the frame, waited for it to dry then trimmed it and added a thin of glue to the edges as necessary. Now if your looking for factory replacements your going to try and figure out what brand of porthole it is them contact them.
