: That review was great... you may be a beginner, but you know more

: I've been thinking about taking the extra time (and difficulty) of

: fits between the two deck stringers easily. Any thoughts about
: adding a hatch to the front?

Thanks.

Rear hatch is relatively easy to do but front hatch will require to change the deck to more flat one so for me is too late to add it - it will compromise the frame. Rear hatch can be made like cockpit coaming with a cover. Anyway loading in front is easier so its not critical to have hatch there.
