I replaced the lens at the same time I replaced the gasket so I didn't
attempt to replace the gasket only. Based on what I saw while
disassembling the hatch frame I would say it is probably very simple to
replace only the gasket.
Couple things with making the gasket. First, use a very sharp razor blade
and press firmly perpendicular to the gasket to get a nice clean cut.
Second use the super glue VERY sparingly. 6 drops placed strategically
around the middle of the cut will be plenty...more glue will just leave
hard spots in the gasket that might not seal.
Chris, are your hatches Bomar? I thought they switched to Lewmar hatches
on newer hulls. I could swear my hinge screws penetrated the deck,
but....would not bet my boat on it.
