[QUOTE="seasprite, post: 175528, member: 4334"] I'm restoring an 1848 sea sprite. I'm decking the front and back. My question is it easier to make the hatch square, or round the edges. I like the way the rounded edges look,might be hard to cut out. I'll be carpeting it after I'm done. When I cut the hatch out of the deck ( using 3/4 plywood) how much space should I leave for marine carpet? I'd like to keep the hatches tight as possible. Is there a rule to leave 1/2 space or so to accommodate the carpet and hatch. [/QUOTE]
