Front Hatch Specification 1990 Catalina 34

[barry]

I have a Lewmar rollstop hatch that requires new hinges.  Does anyone know the "lewmar hatch size - e.g., size 65 or the part number for the replacement hinge.  

Has anyone replaced this hatch?  If so, what was the replacement make / model?

thanks

I recently replaced the rubber seal in my forward hatch.  I dealt with Pete at Florida Rigging, 800-718-1649.  He was very helpful and he seemed to know a lot about Lewmar hatches and repair parts.  He was able to identify the correct seal after several other sources had come up with the wrong part number.  

There is a repair kit for the rollstop hinges if the problem is that the hatch won't stay open.  My seal had to come from England, so it took a while, but they probably have the rollstop repair kits.  

By the way, Pete said that Lewmar only made 2 hatches in the trapizoidal shape used on the C34.  The part number for my seal (it fit) was 8KSK0307.  That might help to identify the hatch.
