Cabin eyebrow windows
Good morning gang,I have received both port and starboard cabin windows from Beneteau for replacement as the existing leak and are badly etched. Beneteau has referred me to the dealership for installation but I'm having trouble getting a response. Does anyone have any experience replacing these and any recommendations. JohnSee More
"Hello Randy,
New to the group, going through the posts, I have come upon this thread. I was considering tinting my windows of my Beneteau 43 with a darker tint, but I really like your idea. So I will copy with…"

thanks so much....very helpful!
we are using footloose and plan to go from roadtown..thru the BVI annd up to anegada, then back and finishing up at can island bay. love to have a beer..how about the evening of july 10th..somewhere near footloose marina?
Willy T's (Norman Island...animal house! )
Foxy's (Jost Van Dyke... nice beach, cool bar)
Myetts (Cane Garden Bay.. my neck of the woods)
Stanleys(Cane Garden Bay.. Sunday night bbq + live music)
The winds are pretty consistent.. a good idea would be to download 'Ugrib' (ugrib.com). Its one of the best wind real time and forecasting programs I've ever used and its 'FREE' its a small download for the application and then just select the area you're sailing and it overlays the wind data straight on top... it even integrates with 'Maxsea'
No special routes.. some of the better dive-snorkel sites don't have mooring balls so be prepared to anchor.. all the rest do, but get there early and get to your overnight stay location by mid afternoon to guarantee a mooring.
Must see's: The Baths VG, North South VG,
I cant help with the fishing as i've never done any.. but be warned you must buy a fishing license... the fines for illegal fishing are astronomical .. really. Your charter company should be able to advise. who are you using...
Anyway happy sailing.. if you're near Road Town, we could grab a beer.
