34 - Main Saloon Hatch
Simon
Bound had a leaking hatch on "Caladh" and decided he would have to renew
the seal. The question he originally asked was, "Has anyone done
this or know whether the 'Rollstop' seal is available?" and "Where could
he get one?"
Simon
answered the question himself. He discovered that the internal rubber
seals are available from a company called 'Seals+Direct', who are also
an agent for Lewmar. The details are:
web:
www.sealsdirect.co.uk
e-mail:
sales@sealsplusdirect.co.uk
telephone:
0845 226 3345
facsimile:
0845 226 3343
post:
Seals + Direct Ltd, 32 Marley Avenue, New Milton, Hampshire, BH25 5LJ.
He, in
fact, discovered that the metal surround was bent and invested in a new
Lewmar Ocean hatch, which he obtained from 'Sea Tech' in Emsworth.
They also are agents for Lewmar and can provide replacement Perspex for
the opening port-lights. Their details are:

Thank
you Simon for the information.
Frances
26 - Opening Side Port-lights
Jonathan
Hopper on "Francesca" says, "You don't happen to know if the port-lights
on a Frances are Lewmar, as I need new seals. In the manual, it talks
about the non-opening forward facing ones, but I'm not sure about the opening
side ones?"
