Post subject: | New Vista 238 Owner, as of Sep 2011 - need window latches |
We bought our 1997 Vista 238 last Sept and totally love it. It came from lake Winnipisaki in New Hampshire and we use it at Fredericton NB on the Saint John River system. We have found the windows leak a bit because a few of the latches are broken. Where can I buy replacement latches? I have not been able to find them on the Four Winns official parts website. |

Good luck trying to find anything close to the originals. I've been searching for about 2 years. Actually have one on my key chain so when I'm at a marina, I can show em what they need to match, minus the broken end. Most salesmen and tech's tell me it's time to bite the bullet and replace the windows. Yea, the original windows are a bad design because of how the water lays in them, but I have a hard time parting with* $225 when all I need is a $5 part. *(thats per window...X4= ouch!) Should I come across anything, I'll let you know. If you come across any please do the same! ![]() |
