They still make the hatches (even if they call them 150mm) so they will still make the seals. Check out P&B or LDC online shops.

If you cannot get replacement rubbers in the 'old' 6" size there may be a metric equivalent hatch that could be made to fit (of the rubbers may fit as rubber does stretch.

We had some perished looking seals on the fireball I used to crew in, we just vaselined them up and they never leaked.

My next problem is that the rubber o-rings on my inspection hatches are probably 10yrs old and very perished.

They are 6" holt inspection hatches, can I buy new o-rings or get some lengths of rubber and make my own?

Shirley I can't be the first person to ask this, can I?
