have arrived. Quality is impressive, and I used to work for a manufacturer of top quality aluminum fenestration.
The pair of original fixed pilothouse windows for our Albin-25, the Du NORD are available cheap; buyer pays shipping.

Re: New Sliding windows for Pilothouse from Peninsula Glass
How was the price compared to diamond sea glaze and others? How was installation?

Did not price others. Peninsula's reputation is that good. I am installing myself; one in, one to go; piece of cake.

Re: New Sliding windows for Pilothouse from Peninsula Glass
Sorry, Mark, did not see your question earlier. The window price was $738 ($369 X 2), plus $20 for sealant, plus $40 for crating, plus$69.74 for freight, for a total of $867.74.
Having experience with a couple of manufacturers of quality aluminum windows for buildings, I believe the price is fair for custom windows having bent corners instead of miter-sawn & screw-fastened corners. The Peninsula windows use interior and exterior extrusions for clamping onto the fiberglass structure with Butyl tape instead of reusing the original rubber H-weatherstrip.
