Use as a replacement hatch cover, or for new installation, for a five inch Sea-Lect Designs (aka Sea Dog) deck plate. Can be use as a replacement hatch, rim and cover, for many Aquaterra, Islander, Perception kayaks and some older Wilderness Systems kayaks (pn 8025319). This hatch is found on the original models of the Oru Folding Kayak (clear and black are same!). The rim will NOT support a bag, and does not have a bag collar. (Sea-Lect part number K377155)
Note: The Sea Dog 5 in. Screw-Out Deck Plate is the same footprint and screw pattern as the Viking 5 inch (Part Numbers 1057 and 1099). This is a common size deck plate for a wide range of boat brands, and assumed to screw into a Viking Five Inch Rim.

Additional Information
