Recently purchased '77 cape dory '27. It has an old tired front forward hatch that I want to replace. It seems to be about '22 inches square. I have seen more modern cape dory's with new flush hatches that have brushed metal with smoked glass. Anyone know which company makes these hatches, and is this a difficult replacement job?
Also, anywhere I could order one direct on the web? Thanks.
