Clean the existing hatch, wax it using mold release, you can cover it with resin and fiberglass cloth - let it dry and put on a couple of layers to stiffen it up - then you have a mold. First layer of the new one could be gelcoat, followed by resin and cloth - Go to the west system site and they have more detailed information. It's a bit of work - and MJ makes a good point - a couple of hours with a router and you can have a new hatch made from starboard.
