Well got the hatch done this evening. Turned out good other than it didn't cover the old hinge screw holes. I haven't sealed it in yet with LifeCaulk but that'll be easy enough. Still debating whether to keep it swinging down or have the door go up. Not sure yet what I'll keep in it yet. Currently it just has 2 tossables in it. Here's some before and after pics.
As I got it with the totally awesome green graphics  Old door gone.  New hatch in with a little help from the Shop-Vac and Sonicrafter tool.  Door open. Much more room to access whatever finds its way in there.

Also on a side note I sold my Striper tonight so looks like I better get cranking on this. Plan on painting the rod boxes tomorrow and then I'll just be waiting on the upholsterer. Then we will get splashdown!!

I like it swinging down, easier to get at whatever is stowed in there without the door closing on you, looks good.
On the carport enclosure, I'd spend a few bucks for what you really want instead of wishing you had.

Gunnel boxes done. It blew me away that I never noticed the wood trim around it actually has a purple tint to it also. Up next to the white on the console it's not as noticeable. But for some reason next to the pewter you can definitely see purple. Not sure what to do about that. May have to live with it for now. The pewter is much darker in the pics than it actually is. I still have the cover draped over the t-top so pics had no light. Here's before and after.
    Also got the hatch permanently mounted and sealed up good.
