: Now on the hatches. Any recommendation on weatherstripping? I know I have
: read this before but I can't remember what was suggested.

Almost all weatherstripping is neoprene. You can just as easily buy neoprene and make your gaskets yourself in any shape you want if you buy your own raw neoprene (neoprene that doesn't have nylon facing on the sides. Sometimes they call it "grippy" neoprene). It attaches with 3M Super 77 adhesive.

I get neoprene from FoamFactory. You can get a ton of it for what you'd pay for a single roll of quality weatherstripping, and once you've got some you'll find a lot of uses for it. Cut out the middle-man.

Good luck! You must REALLY be ready to have this boat finished!
