Charlie, I've had my sea hood off once to replace the plexi. There isn't much to keep it centered, as I recall. There is a piece of teak at the forward end to keep it from sliding to far aft. The 1"x2" teak pieces never had a covering, just bare wood. Stop by at SBRW this year and I can show you. My boat is on C dock at HYC.

Currently it simply slides on 1 x 2" teak (?) boards which are mounted on the coach roof under the 'cover' of both the sliding and fixed hatch. Water is presumably to flow off both hatches thru limber holes in this cover to the coach roof. Initially there may have been guides attached to the teak boards but these may have either disintegrated or been destroyed over the years per para above. My question for the list, esp. 1990 and later C&C 36 XL, R or + models is does your sliding hatch have guides to keep the sliding plexi/lexan hatch 'centered' on the teak boards and/or is there something else that is part of the sliding hatch assembly that prevents water ingress.
