[C320-list] Bomar Hatch Screens?

[Scott Thompson]

Glebe Creek Screenworks is in Edgewater, just a bit north of you.  Their 
screens are works of art and priced accordingly.  I did not purchase 
their screen for the v-berth hatch, however, as I thought it was going 
to restrict headroom forward too much.  Went with one of those weighted 
bug nets instead.  What I really want is a solution that lets me keep 
the hatch open in the rain with no bugs or water entering.
