The Boating Forum - I need hatches for Proline 2510 WA!

Hello,

I have a 1994 Proline 2510 WA and I have some cracked hatch lids and the deck hatches are starting to rot out. I was wondering if anyone knows where I could find some replacements? I was looking around online and found a few places but nobody seems to carry the sizes I need. I need (8) hatch/lids 171/2 x 12 7/8, (2) deck hatches for fish boxes 23 1/4 x 17 and (1) deck access hatch 34 1/4 x 18. Hopefully someone can send me in the right direction.

Thanks!

Have you called the factory in Florida?

I'm sure Mike will see this and chime in with help.

Not a tough question at all.
Monday thru Thursday, Faron, at (800) 344-1281, PRO-LINE customer service.
Faron is a super guy, a walking parts book.
Some of us wonder if he's a human being, or a computer in a persons body.
Faron will give you the part number, and the supplier, most likely.
If you provide him yout HIN, it would be helpful to him.

Thanks Mike! I will give him a call on Monday of next week.

The plastic hatches are made from DPI now. They were called Daytona plastics before. You can order direct from them.

Thanks for the info! I emailed them last night and got a price quote today for the access hatches. Still need the fish box lids though! Calling Proline on Monday.

Why cant you just make some out of Starboard? I bet you could order it cut for allot less.

I never thought about that. I might do that for the fish box lids and just re-use the existing hinges. I will need to do a search for a place to purchase it. I am not familiar will suppliers.

Just found some 3/4" King Starboard on ebay. White AS 3/4" x 24" x 54". Got 2 pieces shipped to me for $290. I found a few places online and they were almost $200 for a 1/2 sheet. Guess it was a good price!

I have a 91 proline 26wa and the top of the bait well lids were built in cutting boards and all chalked out that you could scrape off with your fingers so I broke out my trust DA and some 40 grit and made them look like new finished off with 220 now they're nice and light brown just like new. I also did my side mounted rod holders and they came out perfect as well. It takes off the top 1/32 of an inch maaybe and the plastic underneath is just like new . Rik

There he is.............
