The large window on my starboard side has loosened. I want to 'rebed' it. Has anyone done this before? What type of adhesive/sealant was used?
Thanks,
Mike

i tried lots of things and then when it wan on the hard i had a local window/glass company come out and at a very modest price did a fantastic job. My situation was a little different, but they had the right commercial materials to do it right the first time
Mike, I had a post in the archives years ago on how I replaced a portlight in my H260 with instructions from Hunter. Here is the link. http://forums.sbo.sailboatowners.com/showthread.php?p=466973#post466973
The process would also allow you to remove the existing window and rebed it. Good luck!

I've used standard silicone caulk on my H23. Tape the outer perimeter where you want the edge to end. Use only enough torque to hold the window in place; do not distort the material for it will eventually crack.
