: I've used my screw in Beckson's for 3 years now of very extensive
: use, though not on salt water, and they've held up just fine.
: Occasional lube on the seal helps to keep them from getting stuck,
: as well as not screwing them down really tight, not needed.

Hi Bill,
One thing about screw-in hatches and salt water, the threads do have to be cleaned regularly as salt gets left there as crystals. Lubing helps, silicone based 'dry' lubes don't seem to let salt stick.
