I had similar windows in my Lien Hwa 47 later called a McKinna 47. My sliders leaked and I had them removed and resealed successfully. My current boat has similar sliders which don't currently leak.

My boat has aluminium sliding windows in aft cabin. The exterior black frame and the interior frame are screwed in each other. Removing screws from the inside allow to remove internal frame then push a bit and the window come out. clean, rebed with your caulking of choice and put the window back, the frame being pressed on the caulking makes the whole watertight. Easy job but can be messy if not well planned.
