Leaking port

[Bill]

I have a small porthole (Lewmar) in the main cabin and it is leaking.
I got a new gasket and o rings from Select plastic. Installed and it leaks - badly.
Added some silicone around gasket and it still leaks.
Anyone deal with such a problem?
I am wondering if it could be leaking around decorative exterior bezel.
Anyone know how it comes off?

If you have a port that outside frame is two pieces an upper and lower is separated by a black line. You need to dig out the black line which is only caulking. 

Clean and fill with black silicon.

The interior trim is held on with velcro (the velcro had been glued on and some of the glue is also holding the trim on).  Carefully pry the trim off since it is just plastic and will crack.  You will then be able to see where it is leaking by slowly pouring water over the port on the outside.  This will also give you a view to how the port is attached on the outside.   Some of the screws were very loose when we did this and after tightening them, the leaking ceased.

I always thought I had a leak from the porthole. I tried everything including rebedding the window.. 

 Turns out the problem was with the track running next to the window.  removed the screws,

by removing a panel under the window, and used Boat Life to reseal the screws.  No more leak.

I am ready to try that tomorrow.
