Hello all-
We have developed a leak in our forward hatch over the v-berth. Today, with the help of a hose, we discovered that there is a sliver of daylight at the aft/starboard corner. I have cleaned all around. The gasket seems to just not want to connect there. So, these questions for the more knowledgeable…
1- Can anyone tell me the manufacturer and model/size of this hatch? There are no identifying markers.
2- Can I get a replacement gasket if I can identify the make/model? If so, is it easy to replace?
3- Can this gasket be brought back to life with some lubrication like vaseline or mineral oil?
BTW our boat is an ‘87 TRBS #4830.
Any other thoughts or recommendations?
Thanks!
