  • Glass or plexi?

    Looking to replace damaged slider window on the 25'. Do you guys go with glass or plexiglass? Slider is flat, so no bending required.

    Glass or acrylic??

    The Saratogan had plate glass in the sliders. One was broken and another one cracked.

    I replaced them with acrylic, about half the weight. I used 1/4" Acrycast 2011 green tint. All the cabin windows now match.

      Robert ,
      Being flat ,Acrylic is the best option.It offers the best scratch and shatter resistence.
      Glass is much heavier though nice to clean and is almost invisible when just cleaned.
