Catalina Capri 18 Everett, WA
Hello all,

Long time lurker. Finally belong. Just purchased a Capri 18 that appears to be in pretty good shape.
However, I am a little concerned with the way the sliding hatch sits over the companionway hatch board.
Shouldn't the sliding hatch lift slightly over the board, then the lip dropping down and slightly cover the face of it?
It currently seems to just rest on the top of the hatch board which would appear to allow for ingress of rain water.
It is not a function of the hatch board not being tall enough, the sliding hatch does not pull forward enough.
Any advice or guidance would be appreciated.
Nate
