Hatch screens CD33

Post by rghinson »

Does anyone have the inner dimensions for the fwd and amidships hatches for a CD33. I want to construct bug screen inserts as one of my winter projects but am 5.5 hrs away from the boat.

Thanks and Happy New Year!

Hatch Sizes

On Rover (hull 66) the forward inside dimensions are 19 1/2 x 19 1/2. The saloon hatch is 12 1/2 x 17 1/2. They are both Bowmar hatches. We (i.e. Jean) sewed screens with lead weighted edges to sit on top of the hatches. They work pretty well.
