T&T: portlights

I've found that one of the trickiest things to accomplish on a Google search
is to get the correct name for what you're trying to find. I experienced this
a couple weeks back looking for what I discovered were conical copper gaskets.
Today, I discovered I was looking for portlights, not port holes. Third entry
on Google was Pompanette. Website had the Gray Enterprises portlights. A call
to Pompanette was forwarded to Gray Enterprises where I talked to a young lady
who knew all I ever wanted to know about these portlights. Turns out I can
order just the "lens" which is replaceable.

Those SS portlights would have been beautiful but the $$$$ to buy them and the
work to install them would seriously interfere with my cruising plans.
