My 1981 Hunter 27' has two hatches that need replacing. Can anyone assist in advising where I might find the correct size, specifically the forward hatch which is trapizoidal, with the cut out size width ranging from approximately 19" forward and 20.5" aft (middle is 19.5"). The length (fwd and aft)is 19.75". I've looked on line and the "sailboatowners" chandlery does not have trapizoidal, and Pompanette has some but not the correct size. I would refer molded, with smoked glass. The other smaller hatch is rectangular and I think I have found a replacement at Pompanette.

Check the Archives there are several posts about how people have modified the forward hatch so a new replacement will fit. Also the opening ports are available in the chanderly at this web site

I have a set of instructions if you like a set

I've done this on my 1978 H-27 several years ago and it's not very difficult. Took less than a day. I have a complete set how to instructions. If you send me your e-mail address I'd be happy to email you, a set complete with diagrams. It's not hard to do..... Howard Nelson Nelsonhow@netscape.net
