      My hatches are Bomar and cost about $900 to replace. Is the Ocean 60 less? I haven’t replaced the bad one yet? Jim

      Jim,
      Around the same price for the Lewmar 60s at WM and Defender. I much prefer
      the operation of the Lewmars to the old Bomars. The Lewmars can be dogged
      very quickly and mine have never leaked. Bomar does make hatches with
      extruded aluminum frames similar to the Lewmars. I would have purchased
      those in 2001 except they were not a drop-in replacement for the old Bomar
      hatches at that time.

      All I replaced was the Lexan and the aluminum frame that holds it.

      When I called Lewmar the guy on the other end of the phone steered me away from
      buying a complete unit, a recommendation that saved me significant amounts of $.
      It would have save lots of time too, except for the fact that I re-beded all of
      my hatches.

      Nope. I had Lewmar hatches that a PO had installed. One of the hatches (the
      hatch just aft of the mast) leaked. It leaked because the seal between the lexan
      and the aluminum failed.

      You are on Puget Sound, aren’t you? Do you live aboard? Where is your boat?

      I purchased Bomar low profile hatches that were a good drop in fit for the
      larger 2 hatches.I also replaced the smaller one over the galley with a slightly
      smaller Bomar low profile-using half inch star board  between the two to raise
      the hatch one half inch but more importantly mount it.

      Joe,

      I am a visitor here in Gig Harbor and I have been remiss in my efforts to search
      out marinas that allow dock walkers.

      I think Patrick “Peaboy” Walters is a permanent resident of the Puget Sound area
      so he would be a better source of information. I always enjoy getting together
      with fellow 424 owners. We had several 424 folks at last year’s Annapolis show
      and it was a blast putting the faces together with the names. If you get in
      contact with Peaboy and plan something, I’d love to join in.

      Lee

      For those Pearson 424 and 422 owners who desire a Lewmar size 60 drop in
      hatch replacement, be sure to go to the Defender web site pronto, as they
      have a limited supply of a special buy for only $250 per hatch. I just
      bought 4 yesterday and they have at least 12 left. A very good deal.

      The Medium Profile ones. I just ordered 2. The cutout opening is 3/16″ bigger than the Ocean Series.
