Stus-List Cabin window replacement, again

The time has come to replace my cracked and leaking Windows on my 37+. I had planned on using 4991 tape and 795 silicone to attach the plexiglass. The problem is that the width of the glue joint is narrow, as little as 1/2 inch in some places. Should I make the plexiglass window larger to

Re: Stus-List Cabin window replacement, again

By "glue joint" I mean the overlap area created by the difference between the size of the widow and the size of the hole the window is covering. This area is narrow especially at the bottom of the window, 1/2" or so. The VHB tape is 1/2" wide, leaving no room for sealant. I could cut the tape
