Speaking of hatches, I’ve had a brand new Vitus hatch sitting in my garage (in
the box) for quite some time. I’m guessing it’s about 24 x 24. When I bought
it, my evil plan was to replace the Atkins and Hoyle hatch on the 42, but the
Vitus was not a perfect fit and I decided to go the re-build
Breaking the seal…..
Possibly the insertion of a putty knife(s) and the thoughtful application of
heat would slowly break the seal. Thankfully mine were bedded in butyl.

John, I agree with Bill…….someone knows how to get that lid off. You are not

I had my cradle rebuilt after I purchased my 42. The new supports were made

My first thought is, why do you have to remove the hatch frame itself? If
it's attached that well, can't you just leave it there and remove the lid
and have a new lens put in, and put new gasket in?

I used 4200 on several deck fittings in 2007 and removed them last year to
paint the deck and rebed them. They never leaked and the stuff was firm but
not hard. 4200 is not epoxy so you simply need to cut through the stuff to
break the bond without damaging the fiberglass underneath.

This is probably common knowledge, but it helps repeating.
When you lay the mast down for winter, as a lot of us do here in the North,
make sure that your spreaders hang "upside down", i.e., the open part that
attaches to the mast points down.
Otherwise, water can accumulate in the spreaders an
Thanks but how do I get it between the hatch and deck??

1. Weld repair
2) Replace – Have found this scrap yard very helpful and large inventory at
very reasonable pricing https://www.massmarineparts.com/
3. Buy new – Klacko marine? South Shore? – will be expensive

Yeah, that's a nothing burger. Just take it too someone who can weld

Or take it to a competent Machine Shop that also does aluminium welding?
I'm guessing the crack is from water freezing inside in the winter when
the mast was stored? Odd otherwise.
