My Ribcraft locker is always full of water as well. I have decided to leave it open during the winter at least it has a chance to let the plywood dry out occasionally. Thanks for you post which was a bit shocking where did you buy your replacement hattch from Dave?

I didn't buy a replacement, I just re-fitted the original one but made a better job of it. Saying that, Jason did offer me a new larger hatch & some Sika, but it never got any further.

Have a word with that Jase bloke and ask him to use a bit more chewing gum when fitting these hatches. This thread is killing me.
