On a boat with nothing heavy under the hatch to restrain, I have set in neodymium magnets into the floor and the bottom of the hatch.On the Vega, or any other boat with heavy stuff that the hatch needs to contain I might use something like thisI use McLube Sailkote in my mast slot. On things with plastic bearings (traveler, adjustable cars, blocks, furler etc) , I use Harken One Drop.I try avoid silicone near anything I may need to paint or do repair on later (on the other hand I don't know if McLube or One Drop have silicone in them).Neither of these lasts particularly long, but are easy to apply and don't attract dirt.Tim From: "groundhog groundhogyh@...

So. The floor hatches to the bilge.
I want to secure them. Currently they are just laying over the openings to the bilge.
I am interested in what others have done to secure the wood floor hatches down.
Thanks,
