Has anyone replaced the hatch over the V-birth. I cannot make out the name of the Mfg. Mine is missing the struts, leaks from a crack in one corner, and looks like someone cleaned it with paint thinner. Arrrrrrrrr !!! Someone should have been keel hauled for that!!!! Fair winds, g9334

Hatch replacement

My S25 is a 1979. The original hatch on my boat was built with wood and lexon by Seidelmann. Unless Seidelmann started buying standard hatches in later years, I am guessing your hatch was replaced once. I would recommend taking measurements and finding a standard hatch built by Bomar or some other company.

Hatch Replacement

I replaced both hatches on my 30T a year ago. The only reasonably priced hatches that would fit were Bomar. The forward hatch was about 24"x 24" and cost about $500+. The Mfg of the original hatches is out of business. Siedelmann seems to have used non stock sizes on a lot of things on the boat.

Thanks to all for the input. I think that is what is on the very faded/UV'ed label (Bomar). Fair spring winds to all. g9334
