[Rhodes22-list] Where to find parts?

That hatch is used to store the anchor rode.  There is a drawer under it to keep the wet rode off the bow berth. That is probably the triangular bucket you mention.   I don't know where you might find replacements but others might.  A lot of owners prefer not to use this anchor storage.  They store the rode in the cockpit.  I keep my anchor on the bow pulpit and store the rode in a bag in the lazarette.  When needed, I take the bag to the bow and hook it up to the anchor.  Since you don't use the hatch, maybe just calk it to stop the leaking rather than enlarging it.  Joe Riley, S/V Second Wind Lake Hartwell SC.

Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Where to find parts?

Hi there,

I found today that there was quite a lot of water on the ceiling of the
V-berth of my boat (see attached picture). Fortunately, there's some kind
of triangular bucket that collects this water, so nothing got damaged in
the V-berth.

I found that the inspection hatch that is at the bow of the boat was the
culprit for this leak. I went to West Marine but couldn't find a
replacement. The inside diameter is 3-1/2", but the smallest that was
available in store was 4".

My questions are:
- What is this hatch used for?
- Should I replace this hatch with an identical one, or should I open a
larger hole to fit a 4" hatch?
- If I should get an identical hatch, any idea where I can find one?

I would also like to replace the plastic frame of the cockpit shelves. One
of them is broken, but again, West Marine doesn't seem to have that in
store. Do you happen to know where I can find replacement parts?

Pictures attached so that you can see what I mean.

Thanks!
Alexis
