Windshield

OK, now that you guys have been so helpful in regard to my spray problems, I have another question.
Just talked to the yard guy, Ross, who will be workign on my boat in a couple of weeks. He is having a hard time finding new rubber seals/moldings for the windshield of my boat - again, Pescatore is an '86, 10 meter, mid cabin express.
All three of the large panes of glass have leaks at their bottom edges; and the frames are starting to show a little corrosion. I had instructed Ross to remove all of the glass; to clean and paint the frames; and to install new seals. However, he cannot find a source for the rubber.
I have talked to Beacon about this matter and they have yet to come up with a solution.
Anyone had this situation occur and found a source?
Thanks.

Bet we'll have an answer very soon.
Very impressed with the encyclopedic knowledge of Trojans of some of these guys.

Didn't our Norwegian friend just do this, or is he still gearing up for the job?

I am a rookie to the forum.
Who is the Norwegian?
