I have a new-to-me 2010 16' Angler. The port and starboard windows only open about 10 inches, because there is a rubber window seal/gasket that prevents it from opening any further. It looks like this window seal is to prevent water intrusion, but I'd really like to cut the rubber back a bit so the window can open fully. Does anyone have experience on this or a reason why I shouldn't cut it?
Thanks!
