I have #397 and the forward hatch is a teak frame with a plastic top. The
plastic was plexiglas, I think, which I changed to lexon. The lazerette
hatch was laminated teak which, everytime it wore through to the next layer
of glue, I sanded down to  the next layer of good teak.  I probably went
through 4 layers of teak and finally replaced the laminated teak top with
solid teak strips about 3  inches wide and used several more of these
strips to back up the top strips (underneath, running across the top
strips).
