[Alberg30] Caulking Teak Hatch Covers

What I did to 272 , which had wooden hatches, was to buy some 
toungue-and-groove 1/8" solid teak in planks 8'L x 2-1/2" W. Cut then to 
length for the hatch and epoxied them over the existing plywood that had 
started to delaminate and the veneer had worn off. I caulked the seams with 
epoxy, sanded them smooth and used Armada to seal them. The were 
signifcantly stronger and no longer leaked. On some of the hatches the frams 
needed to be repaired before the relayering.
