My Forward hatch is leaking (cracks in the plastic). I would like to replace it with a metal hatch but am having trouble figuring out which part on this site would work. Has anybody replaced theirs that can give me some advice?

I asked the guys on the storefront on this site. Just send a request and they'll answer you. Here's what they told me when I asked and I have the same boat model and year as you. Mine doesn't leak yet but the gasket is gone and one lift and lock is broken off.

Hi Roy -

You can view that hatch by clicking the link below. It is our item number 983736 which includes the trim ring and screen.

http://shop.hunterowners.com/prod.php?50811

Below are all the specific measurements of that hatch.

Hatch Opening
16 5/16" X 16 6/16

Hole Cutout
16 7/8" X 16 7/8"

O.D. of Deck Flange
18 7/8" X 18 7/8"

O.D of Hatch Lid
19 1/8" X 19 3/8"

Right now hatches are being constructed after order so it takes about 18 - 25 days for a Bomar hatch to ship. If we can get them to make them any faster - we certainly will.

Let us know if you have any further questions.

Kindest regards,

The Hunter 25.5 boats used a Gray Industries hatch which is now owned by Bomar. So, I would think Bomar would have an aluminum framed hatch to suit. I have sealed the cracks in Gray hatches with a product called "Creeping Crack Cure".
