My original Lewmar hatch on my year 200 Vista 268 leaked as it had a broken hinge ! I had to replace it with a slightly larger Bomar hatch acquired from 4 winns .

I have Bomar hatches and this topic reminded me that my forward hatch is leaking as well. One of the pins it pivots on is missing. They are 3/8 diameter round nylon. I'll be in a different marina next year, probably with no covered slip. Anyone know where I can get one of these?

I had a hatch that had water come in from the rain or washing the desk off. I just put weather stripping around it, and now it doesn't leak anyone!
