Mine was just laying up on top when I got it home the first time. I used 3/4x3/4" angle alum, about 1/8" thick on mine. I did'nt think of plastic or vinyl, dam. I ain't taking it off now! It works ok!

Looks great!! Worry no more! :D

But I hope you have tested them? If you got any cualking sqeezed out it will have glued the cover in place or caused a dam and it won't slide or slide far?:sofa:

Love the pics. and teh new starboard rails. Great Job !!

Hey Lesterus,

Where'd you get the Teflon strips? Are they self adhesive? I'm just doing my front hatches - glad you guys are giving me the tricks.

Any ideas for sealing it up a little better (weatherstrip or something)? I took a wave over the bow and those babies leaked pretty bad.
