Replacing Ama Moonlight hatches?
Posted: Tue 05 Jul 16, 18:14
Hello folks.
Short story, I've lost one of the base frames (?) of an ama hatch.
In the process now of trying to get a price (and availability of course) for just that aluminum piece but in the process I began to wonder why Quorning uses acrylic (translucent) hatches in the amas.
Why not a flush access hatch instead..like the Bomar option

Anyway, if I can't get the Moonlight part (BSI, rep'd in the US by Rigrite.com) then I'm looking at alternatives that aren't $3-500 for the whole hatch assembly.
Is there an alternative vendor for such a hatch? I think the rough openings are 500 mm x 370 mm...
As always, I welcome the wisdom of you folks here...you've saved me from my own stupidity before....
