    The only plexi windows Hatteras ever put in were the curved pilothouse windows on the larger motor yachts. All others were laminated glass with Solex tint.

    If you're speaking of an aft deck enclosure, those were done aftermarket by many Hatt dealers. The OEM ones had the laminated glass sliders.

    Agree with Sky, get rid of as much plexiglas that you can and replace with glass, you will love the difference.

    Re: Window replacement

    Is the door curved or has it warped?
    Our sliding aft bulkhead door has developed some warp over the years.
    We were able to replace the glass with tempered, just had to fudge the molding some.
    One of these days I'm going to build a new door out if foam.....

    If you use plexi glass my supplier told me that any tinted plexi is now from China and is crap. If you want tinted plexi get American made clear and use a tint film on it. John
