The hinges in the deck hatches squeek like crazy when opening. What type of lubricant should I use to get into the hinges.

I use Sailkote by McLube and buy it at West Marine. It is a spray that I use on all moving surfaces incluing hatches and sail slides twice a year. Novelman

I use tallow on mine or vasoline or silicone

grease or plumbers waterproof grease. Whatever comes to hand will work. It isn't a very high speed bearing.
