I saw there was a question about the Amphitrite stern window size. I would be also interested to know that as well as the thickness of the plexiglass glass. The boat I have has very badly grazed portholes and stern windows so I plan to replace those, but would like to know the thickness of plexiglass so that I know to get right size material.

It takes 4 hours per porthole because you have to disassemble also inside to reach the nuts of the screws and you have to carefully remove the old silicone. moreover it is imperative to be two during the assembly. the Plexiglas is 8mm and even 10mm for those at the stern (altuglass bronze color). personally I put 8 everywhere. the straight cut is easy with a circular saw and the curved cuts can be done with a jigsaw equipped with a special PMMA blade.
