Don’t Buy A Deck Hatch Until You Watch This! DIY Installation!

Welcome to our channel! In this video we're going to show you how we restore our Grady Whites old, plain, worn down fuel tank cover and add a deck hatch for storage! With just a few tools, a little bit of knowledge from this video and some elbow grease, you too can revive your deck and make it new again. Follow along as we guide you through the process step by step. Your boat doesn't have a detachable cover? No problem! This video guide can be adapted to use any flat surface deck area as a hatch. Let's get started!

Yall are Killin it. Your the master of the nonskid.. Tip: seal edges of the cut wood with resin to waterproof (prevent rot). Steve

[@perfectfitboating]

Haha! Thanks! Youre correct! Before installing, I went in with a chip brush and coated the inside lip with some resin. That’s usually how water gets in! 👍

[@AJOutdoors1]

That turned out good.

[@perfectfitboating]

Thank you buddy! We’re in the process of revamping the whole boat

I know you're done with this boat but just wanted to give you some quick advice hit you're edges first and then spray long strokes the length of the whole piece for better and even coverage I've been painting for 20 + years trust me only wanted to help

[@perfectfitboating]

Thank you so much for the tip! I’m actually not done and I’m about to help at the top side so this helps a lot ! 🤙

[@Max-cs1yi]

@perfectfitboating no problem if you need anything just ask and I'll give you all the info you need on repairs and paint I'm glad I found your channel I've been watching all day I do custom painting cars

[@perfectfitboating]

@Max-cs1yi we appreciate that max! Thank you so much! Idk if your email is on your page but I do have some questions about shooting gelcoat. If you don’t mind writing us our email is on our about page, I’d love to pick your brain! 🤙

@@perfectfitboating sure no problem

[@vikingooffroad6719]

Is there a brand name on that hatch ?

[@perfectfitboating]

No not on this one… the marine liquidator store buys tons of them from boat manufacturers so it might have come off a pontoon builder that builds their own more than likely. Sorry🤙

[@vikingooffroad6719]

Marine liquidator is the name of the store ?

[@perfectfitboating]

Marine Connection Liquidators in Ft. Pierce, FL
