I am building a Redfish Silver and have the bottom stripped but not glassed.
I am gathering material for the deck and am planning on using magnets for holding the hatch covers. What size rare earth magnets shoud I use and the spacing. I saw some at R2K3 including Bill and Beth Prices but I didn't measure the size or distance.
