Some of the guys are running with drawer pulls or something similar plugging up the hole in the hatch cover. I just put tape over mine. John ... From:...
There aren't many mods that you can (or should) do to a V32. One is the Improved Solid vang available from VMC. Another is using a size "00" rubber stopper...
... Yes, you need to plug them anyway to help reduce the water that can get inside the hull on really windy boat-yankin' days. So, rather than just cover it...

Mark, It doesn't take much stiffness to support the roach, so just about anything that adds some rigidity to the leach will do the trick. I use clear acrylic...
