To repeat what I think Josh said, Lewmar changed the design of the seals a
few years back.

I replaced the seal in a Lewmar port in an older Beneteau a couple years
ago and encounters this.  I recall ordering the seal from one of the hatch
repair sites, not Lewmar.  Can't recall if it was Select Plactics, Mustang,
hatchrepair.com, etc.  I do recall that the website had info on the two
versions of the seal.

I did have difficulty in pushing the ridge on the seal into the groove in
the port.  I used soapy water and a wooden pusher to push short sections of
the seal ridge in.  Took a while.
