Neicy,
There was a Catalina 27 we were thinking of buying had those installed. At first I thought "Hey, cool." Then I decided I didn't like them. You can't open them 100%, you see.
The curtains on our Pearson 30 had deteriorated so far that after we removed them the Admiral pronounced them un-salvageable - put them through the wash, even on super-dooper-delicate or hand-washing, and they'd have simply fallen to pieces. So she ordered material and rail-slider-thingies from SailRite and made new curtains. They're beautiful  .
Jim
