Condensation
I had a similar problem on another boat years ago and discovered that water was getting past the vinyl gasket and accumulating in the aluminum track underneath, eventually overflowing on the inside of the window. I drilled a small hole (1/16") through the outside flange of the aluminum track about 1/8" above the bottom edge to let the water drain to the outside. No more problems.
