Default Noisey cuddy hatch

When I run my V and going thru a chop or whatever the sliding hatch bangs on every bump, this is the third V I have been on that does this.
Have any of you guys addressed this, was there something original from the factory like pads of some kind that may have fallen off, I cannot see any place where they would have been?

No supermodels hiding out??

Mine has not done it, but I've had it only not attached or tightly attached.
Look at this thread and see if it might help.

Interesting, I wonder if there was something there that I am not seeing that prevented it from doing it originally.
Can't imagine you would sea trial a new V and hear that!!

Mine use to do it till I replaced the sliders with alum angle like tsubaki, made it tighten right up!! I also got rid of the teak runners, and replaced with starboard.



This is before they were bolted down



This is after



3/4 stock, on the bottom split in half and router out a 1/8 slot, this is were the new sliders will slide.

Off topic but is that deck Awlgripped? And if it is did you roll it on or spray it? I have been trying to get pics of what a rolled on job will look like but everything I can find on the net is sprayed and looks like a mirror, not sure a roll job would be the same.

Although it's in the cut-line at bottom of his post, the esteemed gentleman from NJ left out the part about his slider being of a model that is two-piece rather than the single piece like mine and MJ shows...

Tape some carbon paper where you think it might be hittin' in there...run it thru some waves and see if it indicates where some paddin' could go to cut down on the noise...
