I've recently replaced the side windows in our 66 34' Hatteras. I now have
a lip, approx 1/4 - 3/8" around the inside edge (inside the salon) that I
need to trim out. If it were all straight, some simple "L" shaped wood
molding would be fine but I have a couple of radiuses to deal with - the
photos below should help you envision what I mean- the problem areas a

1. the forward/top portion of the forward side windows (inside salon pic is
probably best to see this)
2. the rearward/top portion of the rearward side window (external pics
probably best to see this)

You can see pretty well in the pic that the old windows had "L" molding
around that inside edge - but what you can't see is that around the radiuses
it is crap - little relief cuts all over to make the bend - split wood, etc.
Just tacky in general.

I'm not sure how to deal with this. Any ideas ? Any source for a molding
that might be flexible enough for this job ?

btw - if you've noticed the radius on the forward/bottom portion on the
forward windows - it's no longer there - I squared that corner off with the
new windows so no longer an issue. I came pretty close to doing that with
the other forward radius too but it really would have affected the lines of
the boat.
