before the question - i must quote Sargent Schultz, "I see nothing, and I know nothing! I wasn't here, I didn't even wake up this morning!"
and , i do not know if delaminating is the correct term -
that being said, i have two oval ports - glass seems to be delaminating - needs to be replaced - my question is - What do i replace the glass with"
is there a special type glass to be used? has the requirement or options changed from the time the boat was manufactured in 1990
any suggestions - thanks so much

Glass used in windows must be either tempered or laminated. I removed one of my old clouded ones and took it to a local glass shop. Tempered replacements required several weeks lead time (each piece must be cut to shape first, then subjected to the heat tempering process). I wanted instant gratification so I went with laminated (safety glass) which they just cut out of a big sheet. I went ahead and did all four of mine although they were not all clouded (yet).
There's a recent thread here about a member who made his own laminated glass by purchasing adhesive plastic for the inner layer.
