<<I've wandered West Marine and found many hatches that appear that they may work but I'd like to hear from others before I jump in.>> The problem here is the Marine Ships stores are selling just the replacement hatch, not the hole, or the gasket. They are some that are a flatter, lower profile than the Westy skylight for sure. But how do you propose to keep the water away from the hatch without a preformed drain / gutter? Just use a gasket? Watch out for the rain, and car washes. |
