Getting things together to pull the lid off the center hatch on my E32-3 which also has a solar fan in it. It’s leaks, not a lot but enough. Going to follow the guides posted on this site on how to do the job, especially from Christian. I had both the center and forward hatch lid glazing done by Hatchmasters a long time ago but now that I have more knowledge I’m going to do the job myself.
Still, I was wondering if any has ever replaced the hatch completely with a new one. My questions would be what brand, size (especially one that fits the existing hole), type, price and so on. Don’t expect to be doing that but replacement parts for the Lewmar Super Hatches are no longer available as far as I can tell. So if there is a problem with some of those replacements parts a new hatch could remotely be a necessity.
