Good call Bob, thanks. Weird too as I was at a clients sharpening today and we were talking and she suggested narrowboat window makers too. I really should have thought of that myself but there you go :) Would be great if I could source a template for an exact match.

For an exact match, make your own. My were quite different from what the window company had and each side was different too.

Actually Ad the ones I sent links to were not narrow-boat specialists, who seem to make house-style windows. The other type I avoided was the companies aiming at millionaires or at large shipping companies. The two I posted seem to be more aimed at people like us. It is bound to cost a fair amount, but would you rather spend your money on an old boat or on partying with some glamorous blond, I ask you? Old boat for me every time.....

Personally I prefer dark haired ladies, however in this case the windows win and yes i expect it to cost a good amount. I'll try to remember to write measurements down tomorrow, they do pretty much match each other and will see what prices can get for 1 and 2, if they are actually open at present.
