That's what I thought, I guess I'll try starboard. I found out that you can cut a grove in the starboard and then heat it with a heat gun to make various things, like a cup holder. Hopefully I can make the hatch without screwing up too much material.

Oz the measurements wer what you gave me before. I mad a half way decent wooden temp hatch cover. So I think I can do it with Starboard now. Wanted to try with wood first because its cheaper.

Good idea, 47...I keep thinkin' 3/4" for the top of that hatch w/1/2" sides and front...1/2 goes under the 3/4, deep counter-sink the screw-heads and run a 1/2" round-over router bit(take the screws out for this) around the 3/4 edge...TRICKY part will be gettin' a "lip" of sorts to extend under the center window...ain't quite figgered that one out yet... ::)...just remember:"form follows function"...it'll happen... ;D...
