[Public-List] Cockpit Access Hatch

[Andrew Johns]

A previous owner made a large round deck plate from 1/4 in aluminum that is
aprox 30-36 in diameter. It is secured with 8  bolts that thread into a
aluminum ring that is bolted to the bottom of the cockpit floor.  It is
sealed with a foam gasket under the lip.

It very nice access to the back of the transmission, shaft seal and cockpit
drains.  Unfortunately it does seem to leak with heavy rain.

See a photo below. (please excuse the dirt, this was prior to the spring
clean up and the yard put me near the road this winter...)
