My chum wants to make a scale model of a working boat for his garden railway. He's thinking turn of the century (the last one!) and wants to know if they were all 70' or were there shorter ones as well (he can't fit a scale 70' in!). Any info much appreciated! Thanks, Bob

Just had a smashing system installed yesterday by On Board Solar. Top notch!!

Well.... I read the manual for the boat cover to cover and there's lots of information but nothing about windows! Just as I got notification of magnetman's reply I was actually on the phone to Stowe Hill Marine (the builders) and they were incredibly helpful. He pulled the build file and it turns out that they are Channelglaze portholes - so I shall give them a call now. Many thanks for the replies people!

I've recently bough a narrowboat and one of the top hopper portholes (in the bathroom) has previously had the top part replaced with a plain piece of glass. There is no catch fitted and it is wedged in place. I'd like to get a proper replacement but don't know the manufacturer. After some searches I thought it was Caldwells but it turns out not to be and they don't know who's it is either. Here's some pictures of the other ones. The top glass measures exactly 11 1/2" across the flat and the porthole itself is twelve inches diameter. Many thanks!
