Teak Hatch Cover

[jsdiggs]

I have a classic 22 ft downeast bass style boat with lots of teak trim but a smoked glass Bowman hatch cover on the cuddy cabin top. Ugh! I want to replace it with a nice teak hatch cover. Anyone have any sources or designs that I could get? Thanks.

A teak hatch isn't an "off the shelf" item. You can find good treatments of hatch construction in most standard boatbuilding texts. Chapelle, McIntosh, Stewart. Are you really ready to trade looks for a dry berth? LOL

Practical Yacht Joinery by Bingham has a pretty good example.
