I think an important question with a day hatch for builders is what hatch cover. You want to be able to easily access items and not have everything packed in dry bags.
Many people like the front deck day hatch which really doesn't need that much space and drops down between the knees. But having a 100% water tight seal that can be opened easily is the challenge unless you want to buy the rubber ones or plastic Beckson types.
