Dennis,
Thank you! That is a great suggestion. I have been dealing with Velcro to
attach my mosquito screens to my hatches. This is a much better solution.
Definitely on the list for next Spring.
Now - if someone could tell me what would work to remove the dried Velcro
adhesive residue from my headliner?

What do you mean Snap In? Did you install snaps or maybe build a teak frame
and stretch mosquito screen like a painting, and wedge it into the fiberglass
liner somehow making it stay there?
Lee, I mean canvas snaps and studs, like these:

The screens have Sunbrella borders with the snaps. The studs are screwed into
the headliner around the forward hatch or, in the case of the companionway, the
wood trim and the edge of the sliding hatch. They fit tight and keep out the
skeeters.
Nice thing about them is they fold up small and stow easily. I could almost
put both the forward hatch screen and the companionway screen in a 1 gallon zip
bag.
