: Just had to show the recesses hatch. I just finished shrinking the
: skin on the boat and took it outside for few photos. I am really
: happy with the way this came out. My first try at a recessed
: hatch on a SOF boat. I 'borrowed' the idea but it really worked
: out well. I got some sample SeaLect Designs hatches a few weeks
: ago and was really impressed. So I decided to add them to the
: next project I worked on.

: I start finishing this one in the morning. Should have it on the
: water next weekend.

Hi Jeff,

It looks very nice but
what is the purpose of a hatch in a SOF? Or do you have bulkheads installed and in that case, how did you do that?
