Cosa tratta questo video
Installing a Lewmar Ocean Series 65 hatch on an Alberg 30 requires structural preparation, fairing, and a watertight seal. The process begins by test-fitting the hatch and sanding down rough fiberglass edges.0:51 To create a smooth mounting surface, apply West Systems epoxy mixed with 407 low-density fairing filler, keeping the mixture in the shade to prevent premature curing.3:21 Use a cake decorating bag to apply a clean fillet around the hatch perimeter, smoothing it with a popsicle stick.5:08 After sanding and painting the area, install the hatch using butyl tape.9:01 To ensure a secure fit, over-drill the screw holes and fill them with epoxy before final mounting.9:59 The lens must be removed from the frame to access the mounting screws.10:16 While through-bolting is an option, butyl tape provides a sufficiently strong and watertight bond that resists heavy seas.11:17 A mechanical hatch stay can be added later to hold the lid open in rolly anchorages.12:35
