: I often see the large Bomar boating hatches but never see the
: smaller ones you� used.

: They seem pretty nice. Hows the water tight seal?

I ordered mine from a local (to me) marine supplier - https://www.mercersmarine.com/

As said above, I get about an ounce of water after a few hours in the water. I'm thinking that beefing up the gasket would get an incredibly tight seal - if you feel that you need it. The gasket is just a round rubber one - almost like a soft rubber hose.
