Ahoy Kerry: In 2005 I replaced all the side windows (galley, saloon including sliding door, aft cabin including rear windows) on my 42 DCMY with custom made ones from Diamond Seaglaze in BC. Padden Creek Marine (now defunct) added $13,000 to a rather large remodeling job for the windows and installation. The rear saloon side windows were made oversize (like the latest model 42's). I love the windows, they work well and look good. They told me at the time that they couldn't make the galley windows so they would open so they are fixed panes. Remember to tell anyone making windows for you that the two small galley windows are on a curve and the frames won't seat correctly if they are made flat, this was the only issue I've had with them. Let me know if you want pictures.
