I would NOT use 8mm glass on a 5'x20" pane of glass. And I don't think siliconing the edges of 2 sheets will work either. I think you need to import a sheet or live with 12mm regular glass (which isn't that bad).

So tell me, how good is the snorkeling (or diving) around your island? It looks very promising based on the images I see on google earth.
