hatch

My brother is trying to find a forward hatch for a Neptune 24CB. His blew off during IDA. We are located in South Louisiana, USA. If you have any suggestions or leads on finding one let us know Thank you Todd Hubbell

Diana's name graphic, as designed by JC2, realized by Night Owl Graphics of Croydon PA. Pic is confusing as neighbor's Chapparal motor boat's arch appears directly beyond! Showing green-painted plywood 'winter cover' replacing foredeck hatch. No; pic is not squashed; the boat really is this sleek!

I have a 1984 ODay 28. When not used she sits buttoned up in the humid NC climate. I know I should have some air venting to reduce the chance of mold. There is not much space for adding a solar power fan and top side vent. I could cut a hole in the opening hatch just forward of the mast And...

Hi there - Where can I find replacement "frames" (not sure if this is the proper term) for hatches? I have a '97 Hunter Passage 42. I just replaced my hatch lenses and I now want the interior frames to look good - not the dicolored plastic. I'm also open to custom framing ideas (wood etc). The...

Good day all, So this happened... Good natured dock mate helping me pin the boom on slipped and dropped my boom on the midship hatch (just aft of the mast, ~12 x 12). The lens survived but is cracked and needs replacing. No apparent frame damage. Any experience out there on doing this? The parts...

Does anyway sell replacements for under $500 anymore? The only source I can find, custom makes what I've commonly called crib boards for over $1000. I own an O'Day 26 and am seeking replacement teak louvered companionway boards/doors.

Hello all! I am looking to add a hatch to the foredeck of my 1974 Widgeon. I was wondering if there was any experience with this modification? For the life of me I can't seem to find any record online of such a thing. With that, I was wondering what the inboard side of the foredeck looks like...

There's a pretty substantial gap at the top of the companion way hatch. It isn't really possible to extend the weatherboard teak because there's just a tiny bit of space for sliding already, and you can't extend the companionway slides (eyebrows) because the pop-top would hit it when closing...

I am replacing the 2 piece lexan companionway drop boards with (4) 3/4"mahogany boards, and wondered what the correct interface is between the top drop in board and the sliding hatch. The sliding hatch has an extended hollow "rib" along the aft edge, and it seems like if I made the uppermost...

Greetings, We have 3 Bomar hatches overhead - one large on in the center, one smaller one in the head, and a matching small one opposite of it to starboard. They leak. The large one seemed to be leaking past the frame, so we removed it and re-bedded it with butyl tape, but it still leaks...

I have a 1984 O'day 28. My forward hatch was replace some time ago with a Bomar 18.5 X 18.5. one hinge broke off and the prior owner jury rigged a hinge that is not too effective. I see sunlight thru the corners when clamped down tight. The interior of the hatch frames has a number of cracks...

A previous owner of my C30 built a companionway door which is pretty nice. However, there are lots of gaps and slots for cold air to get through, particularly near the top where the companionway hatch meets the door. This creates a noticeable draft when trying to heat the boat. What have others...

Hi All With me being a few thousand miles from the old girl, I was wondering if anyone knew the dimensions of the square acrylic lens in the V berth of the 1980's H34? Many Thanks Sage

The fiberglass companion way hatch on my catalina 30 is heavy and really hard to open and close, especially from the inside. Does anyone have any tips for this? Lube? Teflon strips? Aftermarket hatch? I also have a two-part hinged door that a previous owner fabricated. The heavy hatch gets hung...
