We've spent the last couple of months getting acquainted with boat systems on our new-to-us 1983 Nauticat 52, Raven in preparation for our move aboard around October 1. Yesterday we had our first decent rain in a couple of months which revealed we have leaks around three hatches including one that leaks right into the middle of the bed in the aft cabin and another onto the galley stove.
Based on where the water is coming through, it looks to me like I have a rebedding project to do in the near future. Since I've never removed and rebedded hatches before, I would appreciate any advice any of you who have done this have to offer.
Thanks in advance for your input.
