Slim,
Great to hear from you, it has been quite awhile.  I also think of Rummy most every time I read a post from 'da list' .  Remember Michael and the decoder ring?  I miss those days too.

I expect you can just see who made your hatch and what size of gasket you have.  Looks like West Marine offers all sort of choices.

Good to hear you are well and still sailing Fandango.  Keep those checklists coming, I still use yours for raising and lowering the mast. - Rob

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Cabin Top Hatch Leak

Well, hello sailor! I don't think I've posted here since we lost our friend
Rummy. Still miss him. Wherever he is I hope he's enjoying a Mt. Gay/diet
coke.

There have been a lot of changes in my world since then but I still sail
Fandango. I bought the boat and joined this list 25 years ago - wow! I'm
retired and live in Wisconsin now (Rummy is laughing and insisting I'm now
a Packers fan. I'm not!). I keep my boat slipped at a marina on Lake Pepin,
which is really The Mississippi River where it widens between WI and MN.
It's about 2 miles wide and 20 miles long so it's a nice big stretch of
sailing water. There's almost no current and it's known as the birthplace
of water skiing, and home to the fabled sea monster "Peppie". I'm very well
and happy, thank you.

I have a very minor problem and thought it'd be a good excuse to drop in
and say hi. I'm a little rusty at searching the archives and didn't find it
there. The hatch on the port side cabin top leaks a little. I'm wondering
if anyone has replaced the foam gasket around the opening or has any other
fixes. I thought of just sticking a dime or something up in the latches on
the inside to make it close a little tighter but that would probably loosen
the latches permanently and then dimes would have to become part of my
onboard gear forever and my checklist is already a novel. Thanks in advance
for any suggestions, and looking forward to hearing from some old friends
or new ones.
