I had the same problem and Jeff provided my answer.
Did you remove the gasket between the two half window frame. I pull this out
and sealed with 4200 and not a leak this year at all.

Subject: [C320-list] Lewmar port leaks
Help! I know there are a number of posts and I read as many as I could find
re the operable ports leaking. I have thoroughly cleaned the glass and
cleaned the seals with Armoural.
I have re-caulked the exterior small horizontal seams in the frames.
I have removed the inner plastic frame covers and tightened all the
mounting screws.
My port side remains leaking, mostly the aft port light.
The leaks seem to be right at the dog or bolt that holds the port light
closed. The dog seems tight and secure and I cannot figure out even how to
remove it and check it further.
Any insight is appreciated. It rained hard last night and I got easily a
pint of water through this light, soaked the port settee, the locker cover
etc.
Thanks - Jamie
