Leaking windows

I’m having trouble with leaks in the cabin windows. The seals are breaking up and the self tapping screws seem to comtinually work loose; could be caused by vibrations from the outboard. The windows are now badly crazed so I’m not sure they will stand being removed. Can replacements be obtained. Poteen is a 1981 boat. Any clues gratefully recd. day phone 020 7804 8988.
