Hatch rubber

Post by captfrank »

Anyone know where I can get that rubber material/isolator that goes on our hatches to keep hatch from rubbing etc on the deck?

The 33's don't have anything like that, just fiberglass to fiberglass. What does the rubber look like?

I’ve used the one sided sticky foam the kind you put around your front door to keep out the wind. It works but needs to be replaced every few years.

Capt Frank, I used 1/8" neoprene rubber when I recored the hatches on my 35. Can't remember where I bought it but it was online somewhere. Came in a bulk roll. I just used a razor to cut to size.

FYI got some off ebay and it worked real well. No more creaking/slamming of deck plates.
