Hatches and Latches

Deck Hatches - The fiberglass deck hatches for the anchor locker, bilge and the 2 fish boxes can easily withstand
the weight of passengers and gear; just like the rest of the deck surfaces. The hatches for the bilge and fish
boxes are each equipped with gas shocks. The gas shocks allow you to easily open and close the hatches. The
gas shocks also hold the hatches in place when they are open.
The twist latches that are installed on the fiberglass deck hatches are made of stainless steel. Just lift the handle
of the latch from the recessed area of the hatch, twist it and lift the hatch open.
closed and secured before you get underway. Lift the handle of the latch, turn it 180 degrees so that the latch
catches and return the handle to the recessed area of the hatch.
