GB 46 classic- Broken Window Fix Help

[sheelawa]

Hi all,
We have a few broken salon windows in our "new" 1990 GB 46 classic. Wanted some tips/advice on replacing them. We have the owners manual with instructions on how to remove them. Just wondering what peoples ideas/thought/advice are? We will be moving boat in November to Brunswick Landing, GA. Thanks in advance!

No tips to offer but I am following. Does it have the wooden frames on the outside that have to be removed? I would be interested to see their instructions on removal.

Go to my blog, grandbankschoices.

I rebuilt all my windows and refinished the frames.

Sorry, no easy way.

PM me with questions.

Here are the screen shots of the manual and the broken glass. Says you can remove without removing the wood frames. These are NOT the front bow windows.

I'll message you. Thank you!

I just read your blog. Thank you. It seems like the windows are within metal frames that can be "popped out" according to the manual. It doesn't seem like the windows are part of the teak frame.

Thank you for the instructions Sheila

If you are not going to remove the frames to get the glass out, them maybe the use of a suction cup handle (like used to pull dents out in automotive repair) would help with lifting the panes out of the tracks.
