Material: Deck Plates

Hi there. I've been slowly building a humble Coho, and the end is now in sight. Because I didn't like the look of the optional hatches on the Coho, I am not putting in bulkheads. But, I was thinking of putting in a deck plate, with a watertight sock somehow fitted in so I can easily reach snacks and stuff on day outings. Does anyone have any experience with this? Or where I can purchase a deck plate that comes with the watertight sock.

Any advice for this novice boat builder would be greatly appreciated!

Susan
