So the middle adjustable window doesn’t stay open because of the tightening fitting. Can that be replaced and if so where would I find it. It’s for 2006 22 cruiser.
 
The strut for the center window is a Sea Dog part. Look in their catalog. They used to sell a repair kit, but I haven’t seen it in the catalog for awhile.
 
I've purchased windows and window parts from the C-Dory window supplier, Advantec Marine in Chilliwack, B.C., where Diamond Sea Glaze windows are manufactured. The best contact there is Buffy Light, Office: 1-604-607-0091 EXT 3917, Cell: 1 -604-340-9639, Email:Blight@advantecmarine.com.
 
I just bought a 22 cruiser and I cannot determine what this connection is for. Is it a Scotty fitting of some sort that something fits in it and if so, what.? Can you send a picture if not just refer me to a website
Thanks

The center window issue is an almost universal C-Dory problem if you open and close that window a lot over time. After "fixing" it several times by disassemblng, banging the brass washer and reassembling it, I decided it is badly engineered. Buying new parts isn't likely a longterm solution. In 2004 "Fairbro" mentioned drilling holes for pins. This is a reasonable solution, but I didn't want to drill holes in it. I find that propping the window with a stick works great. I have three stick lengths for different angles of open. BTW; much of the earlier discussion on this can't be accessed any more.
