Some just snap on to the outside of the hatches/ports... some like mine snap

Do you have a pic? Is yours a pressure fit with elastic corners, or did you
drill the hatch for the snaps?

Bob...what size forward hatch do you have? One thing I had on my last
boat, a C&C 33 was something that they make for the Valiants that are
a little different from what we are talking about here. It was a
padded piece of fabric just larger than the inside dimensions of the
hatch. Inside this fabric "frame" was sewn mosquito netting. This
piece was designed to "snap" into place, from the inside of course, to
provide mosquito netting. In addition, it came with a hemmed piece of
white fabric the same size as the netting that could be laid between
the netting and the hatch (when the hatch is closed) to keep the sun
from hitting you in the eyes in the early morning

This isn't the same thing as the heat/uv covers that I have on my
current boat which go on the outside of the hatch. It may be of
interest if you don't otherwise have mosquito netting or like to sleep
late
