Here is the best (and only) pic, you can almost see the hatch detail on the full size picture. There is a rounded "T" cut in the plywood to allow access to the white plastic handle. The lid has a lip on the other side from the handle. There is a recessed "O" ring providing watertight fit around the 6 inch diameter opening. I saw it at a local marine store in Norwalk, CT and grabbed the only one they had ($25). Since then the store has restocked with various sizes.

Viking does not seem to have a website and searching the first 2 pages of googles revealed no pic's. Sorry.

: Do you have a link available that would show a picture of the hatch you used?
: It sounds like an interesting option for a day hatch.
