Ken,

The 1/2 inch glass certainly seems substantial (the Dashews went with 3/4 inch on their FPB, but all of their glass is exposed--no overhanging side decks, lower and closer to the seas - http://www.setsail.com/dashew/do_PARADIGM.html) and you said your philosophy will be to stay away from bad weather so I would imagine your windows will do just fine.  I wonder if on the larger Nordhavn projects (the 86 and especially the rumored 120) they are considering double-pane glazing to help reduce the heat load considering there will be so much more glass surface area.
