What material should be used for a gasket or seal for the forward hatch? Our boat has some holes drilled around the inside lip of the hatch. It looks like someone was going to install something there -- or perhaps removed something. Is there any sort of gasket installed on your hatch? Thanks, Geoffrey Jackson

Gasket

Geoffrey, I just replaced two hatches on my boat. I used hatch gasket material that I bought from West Marine. It has a sticky side to it to hold it in place until you are ready to bolt it down. I also backed it up with a good quality 3M Marine grade caulk. Good Luck.
