Its November and Kadoona is still without windows, well thats not technically correct. She has windows they are just sitting in the aft cabin. I tried to get some stainless frames made up so the windows would look better when in place as I need to use black sika-flex to install them. All looked good for a while, found a place that claimed they could knock them up for a reasonable price but after two weeks I had to go and collect my windows without the frames, turned out it was a more difficult job than they originally thought, something about radius of curves on the edges. So the long and short of it, the windows are going in with the black sika-flex and I'll just have to get used to the look of them I guess. The frames are painted and ready, next job will be to put the windows in place......
