[QUOTE="jigngrub, post: 231244, member: 6657"] Hinges exposed, wrap decking and hatches individually, then install hinge on hatch, then install hatch in decking, then install decking in boat. I did mortise (notch) out 1/8" for the hinge in the deck pieces so the hinge edge of the hatch would fit snug to the decking when the hatch was closed. You can see the cuts on the left and right sides of this pic. [img]https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v203/greencoachdog/DSC02239.jpg[/img] Here's a pic of the hatches wrapped [img]https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v203/greencoachdog/DSC02224.jpg[/img] With only 2 hatches, it'll be a breeze for you. :wink: [/QUOTE]
