Happy New Year to all, I'm looking to replace/ Rebed the starboard and port windows in 1983 Grandbanks any yards or carpenters recommendations would be appreciated. Also replacing the teak decks is looming so a good glass guy would be helpful. Thanks Captain Scott
 
Id recommend Weavers in Essex md.
On the " beautiful back river". They took an engine out the side of a friend's 43 Vike, never know it.
 
Hartge Yacht Yard in Galesville can do all that. In fact, they did replace one of our portholes for me last year... a project some previous owner should have done a long time ago. I think they can still build a boat from scratch, recently finished a refit on a Chesapeake Bay buy boat (Muriel Eileen/Georgetown, MD), et cetera...

Bill Luvera did mine and was very cost effective, considering the alternatives. He can be reached at (443) 655-3090. He owns Shoreline Services. He works most Baltimore but travels...
Good luck, Ken
 
You can go to my blog, grandbankschoices, and see what is involved.

It is not a small task. Rebedded 22'windows, replaced all fuzzies, polished stainless, epoxied frames mounted then Awlgripped.

I figured 24 man hours per frame, and cost just over $2k. Yards wanted $1k per frame.

It took twenty years off the boat. Used grand banks white, and they look molded in fiberglass.
 
There are some good recommendations already mentioned. Suggest you also consider Yacht Haven in Rock Hall. Skilled team of techs led by qualified mgrs.

I have no affiliation other than being a client
