Can anyone tell me where I can find those rubber bumpers (only thing I can think of to call them) that are on the inside of the lazzarette where the lid comes down? Ours are shriveled and crumbly and some have fallen off completely. I have been looking for awhile and can't seem to find them.

Goto Home Depot or Lowes
I found replacements I think in the hardware area. There just bumpers for doors and stuff. Jim S/V Java

Mcmaster & Carr
I bought a bag of about 50 from McMaster Carr. It cost me a couple of bucks more than a pack of 4 at HD. I opted for the hard plastic rather than the rubber. Search on bumper

From Hunter
You can order them from the manufacturer as well. Hunter will ship them to you. I can't remember what I paid, but they were not that much.

OEM bumpers
When I bought my boat in 2003, all of the black rubber bumpers under the cockpit lockers, and the two on the companionway hatch, were totally shot. Thinking these would be hard to replace, I roamed Home Depot and found some washers that I thought would suffice. They were ok, but not quite right. On a hunch, I called Hunter in Florida. Bingo! They had the original OEM bumpes in stock. I ordered 25 of them @ .49 each plus postage and had them in hand a week later. If interested, call Hunter at: 1-800-771-5556 ext 3015. Tell them you want Item 1000190, Bumper Black, 771-RW (Large Bumpers). Hopefully, they have some left as they work well!

Actually there are three thicknesses of them......
Some of the hatches/covers use a couple sizes. I think I got them from my local Hunter dealer.

Got rid of them.
Went to a gasket instead. It comes in a roll at West Marine. One roll did the stern gull-wings and the starboard lid. (this gasket stuff is like you'd find on a car trunk lid)
