Sliding hatch removal

[Brian Fisher]

Hi,

Has anyone ever removed the sliding hatch for maintenance on their 281? It seems like it should be a straightforward process, but I can’t see how it’s accomplished. 

Regards,

Brian

I think you have to remove the teak plugs in the hand rails and remove the handrails. You’d need some new teak plugs when you reinstall. Have not done this job, so that’s my guess.

Thanks Sven,

Going to the boat tomorrow and will have another look. The work I had in mind doesn’t warrant removing the handrails though. Thanks for your help.

Hi Sven. 

You are correct, the handrails have to come off. My little project doesn’t warrant that much work. 

Thanks again for the help. 

Regards,

Brian
