After my on/off spotlight switch didn’t respond, (which is an entirely separate issue) I struck a permanent wood harbor post over the weekend with my 2007 38 Sundancer while entering the marina. The wood post gouged my hull / fiberglass for several feet and directly across my 3 hull side/ galley windows. The glass/ plastic was blemished / scratched and the chrome frames were scratched and dented. Is there any possible way to have these windows repaired / resurfaced? (the window scratches are very noticeable to the touch) OR is there a reasonable replacement recommendation outside of the $1,500 + Sea Ray wants to replace them?
Thanks
 
Damn Millertime! that sucks! I was just thinking as i was out with my boat last night how bloody hard the unlighted wood posts they put everywhere in the middle of canals etc are to see at night!! Sorry this happened to you, hope manage to fix her without it costing you to much!

The local Sea Ray dealer had to replace a 410DA side window on a unit they had for sale. It is my understanding that the bill was $5000 for the glass alone from Taylor Made. I am having to replace the aluminum vent window frame on my 410DA and the bill for the frame alone cvfrom Taylor Made is $1307. If you dinged up all that stuff and the bill is only $1500, I woudl say you are getting a pretty good deal.

What is it they say? "Pay the man."
