Ian, I haven’t mounted it yet because the decks have to be painted first but I’m replacing my forward Atkins & Hoyle hatch with an Ocean 60. I’ve done a quick dry fit it and it will be an easy job. I’m partial to the Ocean series both from a “looks” point of view and overall ruggedness.
FWIW, I bought my hatch from a fellow lister, Fred Street.
