[QUOTE="thill, post: 523333, member: 4972"] I just realized that the pics I have on this computer didn't show the hatches. I've done them a number of ways. One is to use a hatch I've salvaged from another boat. They come with a factory aluminum "Z" bar. Typically, they will be 1-1/2 inches around the top, (attaches to the deck) 7/8" down, and then 3/4" in. (For the hatch to sit on) It's not hard to make this, using angle-aluminum and a rivet gun. You can also weld them, if you have a MIG, TIG or even those aluma-weld sticks. I can draw a diagram, if you want to see the concept. Funny, that I don't have any hatch pics. Trade-secret, I guess.
