|
Hi, I have a 16 foot angler. It came with two cracked windows. I have bounced around the Pacific a bit and it doesn’t bother me too much but I would like to replace them. I’m on a budget and I’ve never taken apart one of these windows before. Has anyone done this? Has anyone just replaced the glass slider, I’m actually contemplating putting acrylic in but no it’ll get scratched up when I clean the boat. |

Lexan would be a better choice than acrylic. Hard to break, not that much more expensive, usually easy to get locally and probably a lot more scratch resistant than an acrylic.

I replaced the slider glass on my 22 this year, it’s pretty straightforward. There is a step by step video on the SeaGlaze website. Go to the support tab then videos / downloads. A local glass shop cut laminated safety glass for the project. Personally I wouldn’t go acrylic or Lexan. Good luck |
