: I'm using magnets also, but haven't formed the hatch lips yet, so I don't
: know how secure my arrangement will be. Purely as a matter of speculation,
: I thought I might position the perimeter line padeyes (soft padeyes) such
: that I can install temporary webbing & buckle straps across the
: hatches for rough-water paddling & extended tripping with lots o'
: cargo. Then for day trips / less rough conditions, the straps can come
: off. I'm not sure whether they'll be necessary, but the padeyes have to go
: somewhere, so why not there? And besides, a little redundancy never hurt
: anyone.

I am going to do the same thing, need a place to secure a treestand also so will put them so they can be used as backup on the rear hatch.
