Thanks Jack. It seems Searay changed the hatch design sometime during 2001, I think when they changed the cabin layout. I only have 1 hatch that is hinged in the centre of the main cabin. Access is horrible. That hatch is located in a larger hatch that is secured via bolts to the floor with access to those bolts in the bilge. Just a horrible design. You cannot perform even a valve lash on either engine without removal as there no clearance even to remove the rocker covers.
I will remove the hinged hatch as you suggest to reduce the weight of the other hatch as I think it will be heavy standing alone.
Thanks again for reply.
