Hey guys,
I went to latch my forward hatch yesterday and the latch ripped out from the plexiglass. Has anyone replaced one before? Are there replacements or should I see if a glass guy can remake?

2 Things I have heard of people using epoxy(poor results) But also of Thru drilling and using a screw, washer, and nut. Contact Bob at Beacon for replacement partsAndrewBarb wrote: ↑Wed Jun 08, 2022 3:48 pm Hey guys,

Re: Trojan 10m mid cabin 86 front hatch
The four latches are through bolted from the factory. Yours aren't? I had a local place cut a new piece of white Lexan, it's just a square so it's an easy job. Also, you can eliminate the two side latches if you want. After some testing (including a hurricane), the front two are all that's needed as long as the seal is replaced. I use my hatch all the time and dealing with four latches is a PIA.
