Window repair/new glass

Postby Disneyrain » March 31st, 2018, 11:28 am

Hi everyone.
We need to replace a starboard salon window on our 2007 35 SS. Does anyone have any idea how to get a Carver replacement? Thanks in advance for any help. Hope everyone enjoys the holiday weekend.

Welcome to the forum.....Give Carver parts a call with your hull number and see what they say.....yours might be new enough to still get parts or at least have the patterns on file with Taylormade who probably made the original......good luck man....... :beergood:
The above is strictly my opinion always based on years of doing...remember to support local business , it pays back.

Welcome aboard. As bud said, contact Carver. They will need your hull number so get that before you call. They should be able to give you a Carver part number and a supplier part number, and who the supplier was. It is likely a Taylor Made product. You can also take a look at the corners of the window for etched information. If the window is missing, look at the one on the opposite side and tell them you're looking for the opposite match.

Just been through this with the big side window on my 2003 366. I phoned Carver with the part number from the manual. No stock. Referred me to Taylor Marine who are now based in the UK. I phoned them. They have no stock of parts for my boat. They gave me a quote plus a really stupid price for freight as the glass has to be packed into a special crate to avoid breakage. The cost was approx $2000 plus subsequent fitting

I contacted a local marine glass specialist who had one made up. Took 3 weeks. It was a perfect match colour wise and with the same patterns. Total cost including measuring, making a temporary plastic one & fitting it & then subsequently fitting the shatter-proof glass one - $840.
