sorcing and adding a hatch

[Plugger]

I know this must be a basic question but I can't find the answer.....

 

I have a perception freedom (base model) which has space for a 10 inch hatch.... where can I buy a hatch? Are they readily available at my local chandlers? Or do I need to find a specialist shop?

 

Thanks,

Plugger

if you do a search you can get them cheaper, there is one on e-bay under sit on top kayaks, but on size is given

Thanks YakDiver. I thought these Gaspachi hatches needed a fitting already moulded onto the Yak for the hatch to fit onto?

 

I reckoned I need a hatch with a mounting plate: the plate is bolted onto the yak and the hatch fits onto it..

Thanks YakDiver, thats what I need. I'll try and track down a 10 inch version else the 8inch will do fine.

 

(I'll just have to get some smaller lure boxes)
