Me and my son purchased a 1967 33' cavalier seastrake, looking for port side windshield lever and lock.

Am trying to square both port and stbd window screens. Over the last few years I have tried weights on concrete floors, cedar wedges. The wood and glass are all original.

IDEAS WILL BE APPRECIATED AND BOAT NAMED AFTER YOU.

We have a '67 Futura 33'... all same but for hull. A problem we have is corroded hinge at top of port window... frame opens a bit only because the top has some bend. Cracked the glass trying to go past that bend. =\

You guys had that problem w/ hinges? ..and do you know of a good remedy other than complete rebuild?

Have not had THAT problem...but had most others......shame it broke.

Need to run a line of duct tape, like a gutter, under the joint in the hinge and saturate the hinge joint with PB blaster....

I am sorry I don't have that part from cavs I have cut up for parts....
