1988 Montauk Anchor hatch replacement

Member Personal Page Posts: 45 Comments: 2 Joined: 05/29/09	I need to replace the anchor hatch on my 1988 Montauk. I've read that the 1989 and later Montauk came with a fiberglass version. I would like to replace my wooden one with the fiberglass version because keeping a wooden one in that location in good condition is impossible given the amount of fishing I do. Is the fiberglass version still available? If so, where would I go about sourcing one of those? Thanks in advance for your time.-Jack
