I did the windows myself on my 34 over 10 years ago. Biggest issue was the plexus the factory used to attach the original windows would not release causing damage to the gel coat underneath which required repair. Major PITA. But all is well that ends well. Windows still going strong no

I got a quote from "Fix Leaky Boats” on replacing windows and frames (fixed / non-opening) on my 1980 34' two years ago and it was about $2,000 Canadian. I didn’t proceed but that might give you an idea of pricing. I’ve heard great things about their products. Dean > On Feb 9, 2023, at 11:46
