The screens on our Tartan 37 are from Beckson.

After learning what the cost of Beckson replacement screen would cost...$18.00 each, I did it myself, using the old frames. It was so easy, but I am not familiar with yours, but what I did...
  • Purchased screen material & glue from hardware store
  • Removed the rubber gasket from the port which exposed the plastic frame for the screen.
  • Removed the screen, cleaned the frame.
  • Glued screen material to the top only of each frame and let it dry.
  • Then stretched the screen to the opposite side and clamped and glued
  • Repeated on the remaining two sides.
Looks great, just like the replacement screen, at a cost of about $10.00 total
