put the latch in and just test fit in the hole so far so good... trim will be here late this week or early next... plenty of time to get the other hatch halves ready...

ok necessity is the mother of invention... or at least copying... i had one cover out of 4 that had not failed to pull a mold for making these outta fiberglass... so were pullin top and bottom half molds for these and I'll mill some solid bar 6061-t6 stock to bond in to tap for screws... we'll bond the upper and lower together with Six10...

Hi, I desperately need one of these, one of mine flew off when my boat shop was testing the boat and it got destroyed. I have not been able to get an answer from any local fabrication company. Please let me know if you and your friend are still making these! You’re our last hope.
