Nick: Some 34s have a hatch in the main salon; mine did not. As a result, it could get somewhat unbearable down below on hot summer days -- the opening ports made a huge difference. Something worth considering long-term. In the short term, based on your style of window, I suggest replacing the gasket in the frame if you can find something suitable, replace the plexi assuming it's crazing, and screw the frames back onto the cabin with bed-it butyl. That should stop the leaks and provide an inexpensive update.
Good luck!
