overhead window leak

[Dawgs]

My overhead window on my 2520 leaks in heavy rain and spray. Best way to fix this?

Front windshield that pivots open leaks too.

I'm the only one with this leak?

I am not sure what you mean by overhead window. Do you mean the hatch in the v-berth? If so, mine leaks as well and it is due to the gasket shrinking over time. I am planning on trying to remove the plexi/plastic and re-bed with silicone. I have on my list of things to get done this winter. In addition my windshields both leak a little (non-opening type). I need to disassemble them and install new gasket material which I have already secured. These gaskets are dry rotted and despite previous owners trying to silicone them they still leak a bit.

if it is the fwd hatch you might consider replacing it as they not very expensive OEM stuff. You can find better quality hatches to fit from Lewmar if you want to upgrade.
