    For Sale: 41' Defever 1980 home port Alaska

    Pop yatch They were very persistent until they got all the info they needed for our listing. I like the listing they created and the weekly updates but no action yet. Probably because we are in a remote area. I don't have anything negative to mention. Good luck with your sale.

    Where do i find these windows??

    We are about to replace the track in the sliding windows of our "Orca" . The replacement track is about 3/8" but that still leaves a void of about 1/4" - 3/8" on either side. The old material is cracked and dried. Some of the original was a metal material that is rusted badly and crumbling...

    replacing a window in our Defever

    Nice looking boat! Thanks for supplying us with the info you had on Defevers. Would there be a trademark stamp or code somewhere on the boat to see where she was built?

    replacing a window in our Defever

    Sure appreciate the info you supplied. We hadn't been able to gather much background on these boats. We'll bookmark Horizon Yacht Sales company. Our boat was purchased from Sea Marine in Port Townsend. They weren't much help in supplying the history.

    replacing a window in our Defever

    Thanks for the links. I called one. $300+ to replace the old one and $72 hrly to install. We are still remote from the city of Kodiak so we're probably going to attempt doing it ourselves.

    Headcount?

    We took owner ship of a 41' Defever this Sept. We're pretty new to trawlers having operated Boston Whalers and Armstrong Catamarans for most our water recreational needs. We dock and motor out of Kodiak Island, Alaska. It's in good shape but we're hoping to link up with other Defever owners...
