Are there any holes in your deck near the hatch? Someplace where a horn or chock or something is mounted? What I'm saying is it might not be the hatch itself but something in the general area. If you eliminate all other things, whatever remains, no matter how innocent looking, must be the solution. You might also want to have someone spray the deck area with a hose while you are inside the cuddy and see if you can see where the leak is coming from.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God) 
Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
