Hi David
Most likely caused by heat of the solar panels. Replaced our original hatch
when it broke (don’t ask how J) with new from Laird Plastics in Warwick RI.

of holes for re install teak pieces while we had lunch
I replaced my companion way sliding hatch earlier this year. I used acrylic
and its been great so far. Below is a link to where I got it. They were
very good to work with. I simply made a template on large brown paper and
they cut it for me. They even sent me the leftover scraps and I used them
to
Thanks for the reply Ken, I will keep that in mind. How much would you like to
get for it?

I have a dark grey sliding hatch from ePlastics. They used to offer a sample
kit (and may still offer it) of four or five pieces for a nominal fee to help
you pick the color. FWIW, my first hatch cover broke when someone was standing
on it to furl the main. The local window shop that cut the

Good day all,
Am in the middle of a few winter projects and one of them is replacing the
opening port lenses on my hatches.
Can anyone point me to a credible place online or a brick and mortar address. I
live in Quebec Canada but can go to Ontario as my boat is on the hard there.
Also, I have
Just keep in mind acrylic is pretty inexpensive to buy and easy to find in all shades, shapes and sizes. I like a dark bronze to keep the heat out. I use regular wood shop tools to shape it like a table saw with a sharp carbide blade, a router table and pattern bit to make exact copies of ports and
Matt,
I have noticed the same limber hole issue in Calypso’s bilge and dark hidden

Fortunately I did not need to remove any prior owner’s work as it appeared

Some are 3/8, some 1/2 inch. Depends on the size and age of the hatch.

I believe the ½ knot up/down rule is accurate much of the time and it includes
staysails. I recall a conspiracy theory from the ranks of the Foredeck Union
(FU) that bloopers and staysails were “make work” programs to keep FU members

I may be interested and would be happy to pay shipping. I suggest we wait a

The Nicro solar vents work quite well when new. However the motor in mine
died after about 4 years. The unit was imo expensive at nearly $300 and
loss of a $5 or less small dc motor turned it into a much cheaper mushroom
vent. So far I have not been able to source a replacement motor.
On Sun, Dec
I did a Google search for nicro solar vent rebuild kit and for parts. I found
a few commercial firms selling parts, including motors. Hopefully this
helps..Bernie
