Bob,

If you need it, we have a jig that the previous owner built to replicate
the curvature of the slider while laminating a new one out of your
choice of flexible material.

It's in our basement, if you'd like to borrow it, let me know and I can
leave it on our porch for you.  It is for an old-style boat, not sure if
that makes any difference.

The sliding companionway hatch cover on Isobar is a piece of gently
curved 
plywood with wooden endpieces. I had to build one new endpiece this year

and repair the other one. That?s OK, but what happens if the main
plywood 
top goes?

It?s ? inch good Baltic plywood that has been curved to match the curve
of 
the coachtop. If I ever have to replace it, how do I bend  ? plywood?
Did 
Whitby originally steam them? Can it be done? I suppose I could always
make 
it flat and raise the sides using filler pieces.
