Window recommendations, double glazed.

[canals are us?]

I'm painting my boat currently and with the winds last night noticed how drafty the old windows are. The seals have gone hard and shrunk on the hoppers and I thought I may well replace them with new double glazed windows. I have 6x 24x30 inches and one 18x24. Thinking standard hopper style with radius bottom. Or full opening glass.

Looking for recommendations for a marine window manufacturer. I have emailed Wesley marine and channel glaze. Need to phone Worcester windows. Are there other manufacturers? Ideally like laminated glazing rather than toughened.

How long does a double glazed units last on a boat before the seals go? Anyone claimed under warranty? 

My single glazed windows are 19 years old.  Budget, ideally under £2000 with me fitting them.

Many thanks. James.

I am very pleased with the Caldwells units fitted by Aintree Boats to the Beetle.   Unfortunately their website is not very good but the glass seems to be separated by thick rubber/plastic and can be lifted out with it's frame from the outer frame, so good for summer too.

Thanks for your recommendation, I have just sent them an email.

I have emailed 4 suppliers so far.
