In Response To: Other: Ideas for securing hatches?? (Bill)

: I have just cut the hatches on my Spring Run and need to give some thought as
: to how I want to secure the hatches. Looking for some personal web pages
: showing details. Methods that seem most interesting are the inside straps
: (I can't really figure this out), magnets (how best to cleanly bury the
: steel in the cloth) and I'm still considering external straps.
: If there are some good pages out there with lot's of photos on this subjet
: please pass on the links.

Ross Leidy shows how to install internal bungees on his website. Click on "How-To" then click on the photo of the hatch bungees or click on "Guillemot" then on "Hatches".
