: This company sells epoxy sealed rare earth magnets purported to be
: salt water proof.

: http://www.kjmagnetics.com/proddetail.asp?prod=DC2E

: Standard plated rare earth magnets rust and burst if you breath too
: hard on them.

: I use sets of matching magnets, 3/4" X 1/16, 8 per hatch cover
: and 8 per deck lip (hidden under a veneer).

: I have a new, totally watertight hatch design, for rare earth
: magnets.

: I detail it's construction in my new kayak instruction book.

I've used these same ones from KJMagnets.
