My wife is making new window covers for my CD22. I was going to snap them in place. I see that studs for the snaps are available with screws. I am planning on using the existing screw holes for the snaps. However, I do not have access to my boat right now. Can anyone tell me the size of the screws used around the windows on newer ('08) boats?

Thanks.

The snaps come standard in one of two sizes: #8 x 3/8 or 5/8, and #10 (for larger holes). Pretty sure the #8 x 5/8 is what I used to replace the screws that I removed from our Diamond Sea Glaze windows (2007 model CD-25).
