hatch weekend

This weekend was spent installing hatches.

I’d routed the frame of the raised deck hatch last week so after a bit of prep work I went around with a tube of sealant and popped the hatches into place.

The companionway hatch is exposing my limited carpentry skills. After cutting the rounded frame for the sliding hatch I glued and then clamped things together. Next step is to build and install the runners. And then hope I can put it together in such a way that the hatch actually works.

Speaking of hatching… I arrived at the stable one morning to the news that this little guy had arrived over night.
