In Response To: Hatch Choice: Kajak Sport vs. VCP? (Bob Deutsch)

: I have combed the archives and found many great threads about tupperware vs.
: wood hatches....great stuff. Both appear to be great waterproof hatches.
: Other than Kajak Sport having more sizes to choose from...does anyone know
: of any other differences between the two? Does either have a tethered lid?
: Many thanks...Bob
I have Kajak Sport hatches on one of my boats and they have little flanges moulded into them that allow you to add tethers if you wish.On the rear oval hatch the flange is on the inside so I attached the tether back to my skeg trunk and so you can't see the tether when the cover is in place.
Hope this helps.
