Albin 43 Trunk Trawler Sliding Hatch Weatherstripping

[TomAnderson20619]

Does anyone have a source (or description) of the weatherstripping used on the port & starboard? There is none on my hatches and plenty of air gets into the cabin when there is any breeze. I don’t even know what to search for. Appreciate any help.

If it is weather stripping that goes between the door and frame then you need to find out how thick you need. You could take some plumbers putty and wrap it in wax paper. Then close it between the door and jamb. It will squeeze down to the thickness of the gap. Take it out and measure how thick it is. Then go on Amazon and look for some closed cell PSA backed fowm in that thickness . Apply it to the door frame and done.

Picture please?

Is it foam or fur?

If water gets to it is it supposedly water proof or does it drain and just block airflow? This is related to the above question....maybe.
