bonnie: look in your local area for a plexiglass supplier that can provide the tinting (you like) and thickness you need. the M15 windows are held in place, as you can see, by oval head machine screws and nylock nuts (you can re-use the ones currently in use). the 'bedding' is marine clear silicon (this is the _only_ location you ever want to you silicon on your boat!!) undo the fasteners, gently and with increasing pressure push on the inside of the window at one corner to get the silicon 'gasket' to release. go slow and easy so as not to break the window (the old windows can become brittle). if needed you to try 'prying' at the edge from the outside, but be careful not to damage the gelcoat. again, go slow and easily. once the windows are out you now have templates to make new ones. if you like i can post pictures on how to install the windows. not difficult, and best done with two people (unless you have long arms). :: Dave Scobie :: Sage Marine --- On Mon, 3/5/12, Louis Remmers <louremmers@yahoo.com> wrote:
I replaced the windows on my 78 Montgomery using plexiglass. It is a challenge but you can remove the present window frames and insert the new glass calk and rebed the windows. A challenging but fun job.
