Apparent delamination problem around windows

[sailingdude]

I have just started the process of fixing the leaking cabin windows in my 1980 C-30. Upon removal of the first window (starboard, forward), I notice that the cabin liner seems to have delaminated from the outer fiberglass shell. I am able to insert a putty knife under the cabin liner and run it all the way around the window opening. There does not appear to be any moisture penetration, even though the window has been leaking. Is this something I should worry about and, if so, what are the recommended solutions?Bob BollerBenicia, CA

this link: http://c34.org/bbs/index.php?topic=3601.0Then I suggest you get on the C30 website and ask away there, they're experts on your boat.

Here 's what I did on my C25

And this was a ton of work. But the end result is rock solid.
