In Response To: Strip: Flush Hatches from the Book (Ned Smith)

: The book says to tape the cut out hatch cover back in place and tape over the
: seams. Is it really intended that resin fill the void between deck and
: hatch?

Do I understand you correctly, that you are worried about the hatch and deck bonding? If the former you could wrap the lid in saran wrap (I think north american's call it that) I have heard that some wax the edges, but I wouldn't advise that.
