We are in L.A. 2 mos out of the year. I work in the entertainment industry and can attest to the GREAT difference between east and west cultures...especially here in Fla. where the boat repair industry is in the toilet(morally and finacially). This is the reason I am having to "owner intercede" on my own behalf. We will probably do some one-off deck hatches... they are 25 x 40 with a 6" radius on all corners. I was just hoping to get lucky. It's alot easier to buys a set from post. As far as the side vent goes, it was damaged and all that is there is the original hole where the vent was. Structural issues shouldnt arrise. we may glass the whole thing in, cut a set of medern slots, and build a anti-reversion boax behind... but then we have to do it to the other side. Again, buying a vent from post would ahve been a lot simpler.
Thanks agian for the help.
