Re: Carver 396, broken window replacement
"Yes, the replacement was sent from England. It was covered by insurance (hurricane) and as I recall it was about $1500. I don't remember much about how I figured this out, I'm guessing it was by calling Carver, or perhaps it was the folk in charge of repairs."
So, at least that's another part of the puzzle! I did reach out to Trend Marine in the UK via email last Friday but I haven't received a response yet.
Has anyone actually removed/replaced theirs? It seems like something I could do, but just looking for any "operating experience" or "gotchas" that I should be looking out for.
I don't see any screws/hardware holding the windows in place, just caulk/sealant. But I know there are sometimes hidden fasteners that you don't see - until you break them!
Can I just cut out the sealant and the windows come out? Any tips for reinstall to keep the window stationary while the caulk/sealant cures?
Thanks in advance for any insights!

This quote was for my 360 Sport Sedan, so not the same window. Hopefully that gives an idea of what to expect though. I am lining up another yard period for the boat and this is on the list to be addressed this time. I took a look at what the work would entail and think it is one of those I'll leave to the pros.
