Title: Beckson ports
Post by: rappareems on October 19, 2010, 09:06:04 AM
I am planning on "tuning up", and rebedding my Beckson ports come Spring.  I have read the posts and copied all the information, sketches and pictures and checked out the Beckson site... Does anyone know what  sizes I would need to order, gaskets, lenses and screens?  The boat is going to be covered PDQ and if the sizes are available without me crawling all around I would appreciate it. I plan on doing them all.

Mark : As an aside.  I rebedded my 2 Beckson ports back in the early 1990's.
Because that was BTIN (before the internet!!), I went to a Boat US store and found a new port in the box.  Read the installation instructions and then went back to the boat.  Took mine apart and rebedded them.  A thought
