Is it the main window up front or one of the side windows?
I have a similar problem with my front window, although it is not leaking. I have a small crack in the corner and patched it up with a waterproof glue. I called this forum's store and inquired about replacing the window and was referred to a company called Mark Plastics. I haven't done any business with them yet but I'm sure someone here has. They specialize in marine plastics including windows.

Let me know what you end up doing as I may be doing the same pretty soon. Good luck.

It is the large side window. I also have two cracks in the front window but they do not leak much.
Dow Corning 795 adhesive/sealant. You can also use an archictectual grade silicon say for example from Ace Hardware which also works well.

Thanks for the info on the sealant Dave. I have to replace my port side large window due to someone's bowsprit knocking a hole in it during a raft-up mishap. I imagine I'll have to remove the window in order for it to be used as a template. Guess I'll have to take it somewhere to have a new one made. What material is the window made of and is this the best stuff to use?
