382 Forward hatch?
#1
Like a moron,I stepped on my forward hatch this weekend cleaning the boat and cracked it. Contacted Formula this morning and waiting for a call back. My question,do any of you know where to buy one other then Formula? I'll take new or used. On vacation next week and really dont want to boat with duct tape. I'll wait for Formula,but if they dont have one in stock I need options. Thanks, Jeff

I may go that route. Formula wants $1006.00 for a new hatch. But they even suggested a lens replacement. They said it's nothing more than Plexiglass. That sounds like the way to go.
Thanks for your help guys. Jeff
If Made It Rain would just send his boat my way,all my problems would be solved.

Bondo I had to laugh at your post.... I did the same freaking thing to one of my front hatch lenses last year when I was pulling up the anchor. I took one step back and CRACK and then my wife heard a couple of new words from me
I went to a sign shop I do business with and had him cut/route me a piece of the same thickness and then I re-cauked it into place. Worked out perfectly and I like it better than the original plastic lense that I'm now going to replace the other side as well. I used Gorilla glue to glue down the latch. Just make sure you rough it up where you will be glueing.
