Just lost my port side vent window glass yesterday due to a jerk pushing HUGE wake. 1987 Sundowner 195 or similar.

Ohhh, yeah thats gonna be a hard one to find. More than likely gonna have to have it made. Do you have insurance? Submit a claim and have a glass shop make one.

If your frame is still in tact, any glass shop can cut it for you, and can take the measurements from the other side. It shouldn't be too expensive.

And do make sure they use appropriate tempered glass.

Yeah. I have a glass shop were I know the owner close by. The problem is going to be finding the plastic "friction hinge" that keeps the glass attached to the rest of the frame.

They can put the windshield goop and that will hold it. My port window is actually loose, and I have to do that this week.
