Replacement boat windows in Perspex (acrylic), cut to shape

@Smoked plexiglass portholes and panels cut to shape on a boat in harbour

Crazed, cloudy or cracked boat windows? We make replacement boat windows to order in our workshop in Canet-en-Roussillon, in cast acrylic (Perspex) or polycarbonate cut to shape from your old window or a template, for boat owners and professionals in every harbour in France: in person at the workshop in the Pyrénées-Orientales, or remotely anywhere else, in about 7 days.

Crazed, cloudy or leaking: when to replace a boat window

Three signs never lie. First, the milky haze : the material has aged in the sun and sea spray, visibility drops and nothing brings it back, neither polish nor miracle products. Then crazing and micro-cracks , often star-shaped around an overtightened screw or a hole drilled without clearance — they never stop on their own. And finallyleaks , when the seal no longer holds and water gets through: at that point it is no longer the window at stake, but the wood or plywood behind it.

What we remake

  • Cabin, deckhouse and wheelhouse windows
  • Portlights and portholes, fixed or opening, round, oval or custom-shaped
  • Companionway washboards and flat hatch lenses
  • Flat windscreens
  • Cabin side and rear windows
  • Protective panels and locker bases

All these parts are cut flat : we do not make curved windows, bubbles or thermoformed parts.

Cut from your old window or a template

The easiest way: you remove the old window and bring it to us. We reproduce it exactly, outline and holes included, so the screws fall precisely back into place. If the part is broken or missing, a cardboard template taken on board is enough: trace the outline and mark the holes. Failing that, measurements and a few photos are already enough to get started.

Clear, smoked or tinted acrylic

Clear restores the original visibility. Smoked, which we cut most often, filters light and heat in the wheelhouse and keeps the interior private when moored. It comes in several densities: the darker the tint, the less you see at night — that is the only trade-off to make.

Thickness and fixing

3 and 4 mm for small portholes and panels, 5 and 6 mm for deckhouse windows, 8 and 10 mm for large areas and exposed windscreens. One point matters more than all the others: plexiglass expands more than the hull. We allow clearance in the holes and tell you for the fitting — that is what prevents a star crack in the first summer.

Perspex, acrylic, Plexiglas or polycarbonate?

Perspex, Plexiglas and plexiglass are brand names for the same material: cast acrylic (PMMA). Most boat windows are made of it, because it stays clear for years in sun and salt air. Polycarbonate (Lexan, Makrolon) is tougher, but it scratches more easily and tends to yellow and go milky outdoors. We cut cast acrylic by default, and polycarbonate on request when impact resistance matters more than clarity.

Caravans, motorhomes and mobile homes

We also remake the plexiglass windows of caravans, motorhomes and mobile homes : yellowed, scratched or cracked windows, side windows, door windows or awning panels. The method is the same as for a boat: from the old window, a template or your measurements and photos, in clear or smoked. We only work flat : no curved windows or thermoformed parts.

Every model is different: send us a few photos and the dimensions, and we will quickly tell you what we can remake and at what price. Request a free quotation.

Boat owners from abroad

Many of our customers keep their boat in a Roussillon marina but live in the UK, the Netherlands, Germany or Belgium. Send us your request by email — in English if you prefer — with photos and measurements, or leave the old windows at the workshop: we cut while you are away, and the new windows are ready when you come back or shipped anywhere in mainland France.

The harbours we serve

Our workshop is in Canet-en-Roussillon, in the middle of the coast. We work for boats from every harbour in the department:
