ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a boat window construction having a window frame including a spigot defining a window opening, and a window pane hingedly connected to the window frame and adapted to be moved between open and closed positions. A tie rod is swivel mounted on the frame and can swing toward and away from an abutment shoulder on the window pane. A cross pin is carried on the tie rod, and a camming finger piece is turnable on the pin about an axis perpendicular to the tie rod. The finger piece has camming surfaces that can selectively engage the abutment shoulder on the window pane. The camming surfaces are located on different radii with respect to the axis of the cross pin. The arrangement is such that after the window pane is moved toward its closed position, the finger piece and tie rod can be shifted until one of the camming surfaces of the piece engages the abutment shoulder. Thereafter the finger piece can be turned about the axis of the cross pin so as to disengage the one camming surface from the abutment shoulder and bring the second camming surface into engagement therewith, and thus draw the window pane toward a sealing position with respect to the window frame by a cam action.
