<div><font style="background-color: transparent;">Finding a inside/outside hatch closure for Captain George's K-250 dome would be a real boon, in my view. It might not have to be quite Deepworker strong, as we aren't lifting the Ks by their hats, so to speak. But we could definitely do with something more user friendly.</font></div>

<div>A while back Emile offered plans for his submarine.</div>
<div>Perhaps there is the option of adopting them over the K boat plans?</div>

<div>Well, its just an idea\thought. Im not sure on the legalities of it, but if there was a Kboat replacement, id be happy to make a prototype and test it. Otherwise i will probably make a new hatch anyway over the winter, seeing as i have the dish.</div>

<div><font style="background-color: transparent;">We'll need to get Jon in on this for liability considerations. That said, I think there might be a set of Perry drawings out there (although the hatches are heavier than we need) and aaI have an archive of the Nekton construction drawings that I'm looking for a way to apreserve. If the legal end doesn't bite us, then I'm sure we can figure how to adapt proven technology to our requirements, and then provide the result with the K-plans sold on the site.</font></div>

<div>Agree strongly with Vance here, the standard K hatch is rubbish. If anyone wants to chip in any ideas for a "club design" i'm happy to make it over the winter. I have a spare dish which was left over from the endcap hole II cut out. Its just the right size, dished and 13mm thick.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Otherwise im probably going to make one anyway (once ive put in a new kitchen at home.. :)</div>
