The hatch really makes all the difference!
Someone asked me off-line for more info on the hatch I installed.
Maybe I'll take a bunch of close-ups of how I installed it, and how I modified the anchor locker bulkhead next time I'm on the boat.
Ill post them when I do.

Default thanks for the suggestions

Thanks for your inputs. A vertical windlass is definitely in the cards. I had one on my Blackfin which worked great. I never used the foredeck hatch on my other boats except for ventilation (and a source of leaks). Those boats had a lot bigger foredecks and sturdy railings so using the hatch to work forward was not as practical or needed.
