need help ASAP
 

i'm at the beach and need the measurement size of the floor hatch cover in the floor of a 1978 Cuddy. i'm buying new floor wood and need to know the size of the gas tank cover. Thanks in advance

I'll take some measurements as soon as I get home from work Skools... (About 3 hours from now)... stay tuned.. :head:

:bat: bump:bat:

Man if I had one you'd be good to go...

Skools, I'm sorry, I had a family emergency waiting for me when I got home last night... by the time it was resolved it was really late and I forgot completely about this. I'll get those measurements to you later today.. again, very sorry. :(

not a prob thanks

Ok... outside measurements are: 28 3/4 x 63 3/4 inches. That is the space that the hatch sits in. The actual hatch is roughly 3/16" inch smaller all around. Sorry for the delay in getting this to you. My mom (92 yrs old) fell yesterday. Spent most of the night in the hospital getting x-rays etc. She's ok and is home now with nothing more than a nasty bruise, but it was scary time for a while. Hope this is what you needed.

sorry to hear about your mon glad she's ok, and thanks so much for the sizes i now have the dried treated wood for my V20's floor that should make Willy happy to hear i'm going to finish the V this yr.

Dang, 92.
There ain't no way I'm projected to live that long!
My fathers lineage runs up to about 69 years. Only a few generations in this country of liquor drinking, women chasing men.
My wifes female side on the other hand this year went up to 103 with her grandmother.

Glad she's doing alright Destroyer!

LOL MY dad died @ 92 on Jan 1, 2000. Altzhiemers got him or he'd still be alive today I'm guessing. Going to Fla next weekend to help one of my aunts celebrate her 100th birthday. My grandma lived to be 104. Most of my mom's briothers and sisters (there were 9 ) are still alive and all are in their 80's or older. So I'm guessing that while my outlook is good I'll probably get hit by a bus while crossing the street. :you:

Grats on your wifes grandma hitting 103!!!!!:clap::beer::clap:

Skools,
Sorry to hear about you Mom, especially being hear at Easter, but I'm glad Destroyer was able to help you out. My 77 Cuddy has two floor hatches that measure 31 3/4" x 18 3/4" - both the same size. I guess a year model change or possibly different fron I/O to O/B?
Talking about longivity, my Dad and his next brother died @ 56..I've passed the 50 mark...dang, hearing all this makes me want to to get this boat fixed soon, real soon.
