Windows Attaching to Aluminum Structure

Dear Steve, I have just read the glazing section for your FPB boat with much interest. Can you tell how the windows where attached to the aluminum structure? Many thanks, John H.

Hi John: We used a Sika system which included a primer first and then the "goop". There are very specific details on how this has to be done, environment, thickness of adhesive, etc. But it makes for a very strong bond.

There are a number of different companies who have systems for this. Regards – Steve
