Why not just replace the seals,or have the frames fallen apart,

Have a look at these

replacing the seals doesn't help, even with new seals these type of windows leak all over, so need to be replaced by an improved type.

He's changed his name to englander, that the name of his boat, very fine Silver, or maybe John Bain design but not a silver? Any how, might be worth a PM
