Replaced my hatches with Lewmar Ocean 60 as the Bomar's aluminum is past the point of no return. I have had nothing but issues with leaks with the forward hatch which was installed about two years after the center hatch. I rebeded it several times to make sure it was not torked. The leak is not where it meets the deck. Lewmar customer service was helpful but could not solve the problem. They gave me replacement parts which did not work then they sent a whole new hatch. Both leaked at about the same spot around the hinge. I am not so sure about the Lewmar self supporting hinges design. I'm at wits end trying to solve this. Nothing worse than sleeping under a dripping hatch. I am ready to tear it out. The low profile has a better hinge design with an arm. Those of you that installed the Lewmar's which model did you install and any issues? Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.
