Customer photo review of Boston Whaler Teak Bow Hatch - 17' - Montauk, Newport (1977 - 2000)

I am restoring my 1986 Montauk, I have replaced all the wood, including the seat assembly. I have installed everything, and it is beautiful. I do have an issue with the back of the seat. There is a stress crack starting in a screw hole. I will enclose pictures. Let me know what I should do. Thanks James A. Cannon. jacannon63@msn.com.

Store owner replied: Hi James, We can definitely swap this out for you. We should be able to get it in the mail tomorrow.

Really nice finish. It matches the other teak wood on my boat. It fits nicely and without the under cross pieces on the original I can fit more in the compartment. I just finished applying 5 coats of varnish and it looks great. Thanks for a quality product.

Hatch looks good. My only negative is about the lack of the two wood "braces" on the underside of the new hatch that are present on the original. Otherwise, I am very pleased.

Store owner replied: Hi Jim, Yes, we ended up removing these because they were originally intended to keep the wood from warping. We left one of the hatches in a pool over an entire summer and used it as a mini floating drink bar/pool toy. It never warped because the teak is so incredibly strong. So we removed them due to lack of necessity :)
