Main Hatch

I am grateful to have a friend like Ron. Ron worked on my boat today while I was helping another friend Dawson--tiling his bathroom for him. It was after 4 when I finished and traffic was too heavy to travel northeast to ECHO.  

Ron put some vanish on the beautiful hatch he made for me. I still might need a storm hood of some sort to keep water from working its way into the boat.  Ron suggested a canvas cover.  I am in favor of a rigid cover that can be removed. 

This hatch and my large forward hatch are my two trouble areas.  Last week Ron and I discussed ideas for improving that other hatch to reduce the amount if water that finds its way in.  That other hatch lets in too much light. It needs a canvas sun screen to limit the light that comes it at times.
