Anybody have a source for cheaper hatches?
Good grief they are expensive for some molded plastic.

I had water shedding from the deck surface under the hatch coming in either through the screw holes or along the cutout, but once I pulled them up and set them back down with a bead of caulk all around I didn't have any issues. I would think you'd need to do this with any drop-in hatch, aluminum or plastic.
