Window Latch

Post by Ross Bowling »

The latch on one of my Diamond Sea Glaze sliding main cabin windows has come off the window. We tried regular epoxy and the darn thing has come off the window again. Any suggestions on how to make it stay put?

This window is in the seating area across from the inside helm area. The window has been hard to open, tight fitting.

Hi Ross,
Are you talking about the black plastic latch ? If so I just ordered some and will have them shortly.

D-

The latch is white, on the port side sliding window across from the inside helm station. I think that PDQ went to a "new" window design in the last 3 or 4 34's they built. I have a call into Diamond Sea Glaze. The latch is ok, window ok, just cant keep the lat h attached to the glass.

1. I have had success gluing the white plastic handle on with mirror to windshield glue from an auto parts store.

2. My starboard black handle is loose and needs to be secured, how ??
