Can you not just cut a piece of cardboard to fit & use that as a template? Then cut a ply panel as a spare until the new one arrives I know that it does not help now but following a comment after the report of the Fastnet 79 disaster I have mine attached by a lanyard. So it can be slid under the hatch garage, but if for some reason a crew did not do that it cannot slide over the side in to the water. I also have a ply spare that sits under the aft bunk in case of a break. This is because one of our mooring holders had a break in. The thieves threw the hatch overboard. That was as expensive to replace as the bits they stole. It means that i have a pattern & an emergency hatch

Hello Samuel, Commiserations at the loss of the acrylic hatch cover. I have feared the same for a while, though avoided the problem, more h luck than judgement, though it did remain in the companionway cover area after a rainy and windy trip. I keep som clear acrylic and sealant to hand, just in case. I have a 2005 312. Would you like me to measure the acrylic? Also there’s a good guy not too far from you in Kent who produces acrylic of all types, and has done a similar job for me on a Sadler 32 some years back, and we are working through the hatches on my present boat. He is called Jean Pierre, details here: http://hadlowmarine.com/Pages/Introduction.html" rel="nofollow - http://hadlowmarine.com/Pages/Introduction.html All the best, Tim ------------- Tim ‘Priastella’, H312, La Spezia |

My apologies Peter and Samuel. It’s Denmark we’re looking at. Sorry - a long day on the water. I will gladly measure the hatch, and there may be an acrylic specialist local to you. ------------- Tim ‘Priastella’, H312, La Spezia |

Hi Peter, do you have the dimensions by chance? I would need it for a mosquito net:) THX, Zsolt
