Below quoted from Pressure Drop: Drew Scott was helming a F-28.

"My crew is starting to swing around to pick me up when El Raton, in perfect control slides up beside me and asks if I would like to get picked up. They had already doused their chute and stopped beside me. I took their offer and got back into a boat (trying to stop a lightweight trimaran next to someone when it is blowing in the mid-20s is not easy so I figured I would not turn down El Raton.

My crew ably finished the race on Papillon, only one boat behind El Raton! And I had many adventures with El Raton, but that is their story to tell.

So, a great big thank you to the Ray Lotto and the crew of El Raton for pulling my soggy hide out of Suisun Bay!!

I ended up going to Hatchmasters and having the original lid rebuilt. Hatchmasters is easy to find on Google and a Lewmar authorized repair shop. The Size 40 turns out to be too small. Too bad as I found one on Ebay for $150. It ended up costing me $400 to have the rebuild done and it is a drop in. It appears th4e right new Lewmar is a series 60 which is between $600 and 700 and still needs the spacer to face aft.

:: does anyone have a replacement hatch cover? Does anyone
:: know what Lewmar hatchpart number is on our boats? Does
:: anyone know of someone that repairs cracked (not crazed)
:: hatch covers?
