    Sailfish 255 Vent Window Wanted

    Went through this search a few year ago. I just removed the other vent and brought it to a glass shop. The shop sent the template of the window out to a supplier that does tempered glass and 5 day later back in business - not cheap around 125 buck as I recall but it fit perfectly.

    With all due respect

    Just changed 3 of 3 of my AGM West Marine and got 6 years on them - One was dead so I figured the other 2 were close behind. Sounds like something wrong in the system.

    Headline Crack

    Theri was a time that Grady had a traveling team that would handle healdliner cracks - have not heard anything about them lately. May be worth a call to a dealer. Mine was repaired outside of warranty 18 years ago.

    Replacing a Marlin Vent Window

    When I had my vent made (tempered) at a glass shop they made the hole in the glass as Grady did originally, but they also had the hole open to the edge of the glass maybe 1/4 inch straight line. They said that made the glass stronger less likely to have a breaking point around the hole .
