Tradewind owners - my request...

[todanielm]

Hi, I'm refurbishing the interior of my 1972 Trade Wind. In my over-zealousness I removed the front interior cap which supports my top window curtain tracks (the kind that use the double roller curtain carriers) without measuring the distance between the top and bottom tracks. Anyway, I'm having curtains made and need to get the distance dimensions of these Trade Wind curtain tracks (not the front windows - just the tracks. I need the distance from the top track to the bottom track so we can figure out exactly where to put the new curtain carriers during the curtain-making process.

If anyone can give me this information I'd appreciate it very much!. Thanks in advance!

Hi Janie, thanks for your efforts. Actually, if your top track is still connected you could measure from the its middle to the top screw hold for your bottom track. Daniel

I measured from the bottom of the "top rail lip" to the top of the lower track screw hole. 25" (Might be 1/16" less than 25")
I hope this helps
