Mark

When I rebuilt the cockpit on my M-31 I recessed Bomar water tight hatches under my teak hatches. They don't leak a drop and it still looks traditional with with the teak covering them. I also replaced the exterior ice box hatch with a bomar hatch. I will put some photos up if it would be helpful.

James, thanks for the response! The Bomar hatch looks like the ticket,,correct me if I'm wrong, but it appears I'd have to be in a cockpit rebuild situation to make it feasable. .... Cockpit deck is solid. The port side hatch needs rebuilding.I have a couple ideas, but want to get as much info as possible before I commit. James implied(i think) that leaking cockpit hatches are a Mariner trait. Bound to be more than one solution. Thanks again, Mark
