Hole in the boat

[Larry Reynolds]

I wrote this note to Hunter. Does anyone else have any ideas.I have a Hunter, 1987 26.5 boat. The starboard sid window was cracked and I tried to fix it. Now I have three windows in smaller pieces. Do you still have the plexiglass windows for this unit. I measured 9" X 56" X 3/16 thick. If you don't still have any have you helped anyone replace these with some other options.Thanks, Hole in the boat,Larry Reynolds.

Glass shop?

I suggest you check out the yellow pages under auto glass replacement, or van customization. They should have the tools to replace your window, and it may well be a lot cheaper than a "marine" specialist.You might want them to bed the new plexiglass in 3M 5200.

Glass shop good option

I currently own a 26.5, and had a 23, in which I had to replace the windows a couple of years ago. Russ is on target with his suggestion of checking your local glass shop. I took the old ones off my 23 down to a glass shop and they cut them to the exact shape, beveled the edges and even drilled them for me. A perfect fit. My guess would be $50-75 for both sides. Good luck.

Glass (plastic) shop

Thanks for the reply, I check out the local plexiglass shops and they made a new one for less than $30.
