I am a proud owner of a '97 208 that I purchased 3 years ago. The port and starboard window screens need replacing, however, the screens on the '97 208 are not removeable as far as I can tell. Any recommendations/suggestions on repairing or replacing these would be appreciated.

Torn Window Screens - Ditto For Me on the 208

I asked my boat-fixer Dave 'bout that. He said go inside the cabin, and there was some rubber or plastic molding that you had to squeeze together, and the window supposedly pops out to the outside. Haven't tried it yet..boat is still at good old Dave's.

Replacing Windows

Haven't got to the windows yet -- still doing routine maintenance that I'm not at all sure was completed by the previous owner. The useless marina he kept his boat at didn't keep S*** in the way of records - and seemed to care even less. Will be doing thermostats and pressure valve soon, then should get on to the windows. Call GW - they'll tell you how to remove them.
