Default Question on replacing rotted window sill

The exterior wood window sill on one window has rotted away over the
years.
I have aluminum single-hung, single-pane windows and a masonite-like
siding.
Is there a way to replace the 2"x6" sill and not have to remove the

entire
window? All of the windows and siding will eventually be replaced but I
need
to get a few more years out of them.

Thanks in advance.


I have replaced several over the recent years using a "composite sill".
Should never have to replace them again.

It is a fairly easy project for the average DIY person with some tools.

I was thinking cedar or pressure treated. I hadn't considered composite.
Thanks.
