Regarding hatchboards, I went another route. I took the old two piece
hatchboards and had new three piece hatchboards made out of starboard. 
I put
a nifty rectangular chromed vent on the top board. No maintenance and 
looks
good in the tan color.

I had the exact same problem with my ash hatchboards, Tod.  --Craig

I think I'd be interested as well, except (to throw a wrench into the
works)
that I need a slightly larger finished size of approximately 36" x 
36".

I liked my Ash plywood hatchboards until they got black streaks in 
them
despite my best efforts to seal them.  I guess I'll consider them
"practice". ;-)

Hi Jesse,

I have no need to replace the toe rails but my hatch boards are in sad
shape.  Mine are plain plywood which have faded and warped.
The newer M-15s use a 1/2 inch hatch board.  My older M-15 has a 3/8 
inch
hatch board.

Steve E. found a source of teak faced plywood in Maryland called 
Harbor
Sales.  They have a two sided sliced teak 9.5 mm plywood that should 
work,
item 489MSTAA.5

Link:

http://www.harborsales.net/

Look under Nautical & Marine for sliced teak.

The problem is, they sell plywood in 4 foot x 8 foot sheets.  A sheet
costs
$168.  They are located 500 miles from me.

The overall size of the hatch is about 28 inches wide by 28 inches 
high.
They will cut the plywood into twelve pieces of approximately 12 
inches
high
by 32 inches wide.  The cutting charge is $8.  This would yield enough
material to make four sets of hatch boards, with the total dimension 
of
each
set being about 32 inches wide by 36 inches high.  The cost per set 
would
be
$44.

Would you or anyone else like to jointly purchase a sheet of plywood?
