Carver Owners Forum

Where can I find a direct replacement for the rear hatch on my 1982 Carver 3607 Aft Cabin. The plexiglass was shattered during transport last week and I have not had much luck locating a replacement. For the moment I will cut a piece of tented plexiglass and attach it with sealant. This will suffice until I can locate a replacement is possible. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I think that is a fairly standard 20x20 hatch. If yours are all still originals, that one should be the same as the one above the V-berth. If the V-Berth one has been changed by a previous owner, you might check on it for a model and part number. (that is, if you like that style and want to use that same kind for the aft cabin)

Instead of sealant, you can just use some decent weatherstripping around the perimeter and just screw the tinted plexiglass in place. I've done this with the smaller ones while I took them out to rework them.

Those originals were made by Gray Enterprises. They got bought out a long time ago and are now part of Pompanette in Florida. They might have the original specs, or could provide you with their current models that would fit if you can give them the dimensions. Their customer service number is 603-826-5791 (or at least it was when I got their email years ago!)

Thanks for the info. Yes the V-Berth hatch was changed a while back but didn't think of that. I will look this weekend as I can't recall the manufacturer of it.
