From the late 1980's through the mid-90's Hunter installed a unique hatch on many of their most popular boats. Flush with the deck and reasonably immune to the hazards of loaded sheets, they were built on the Hunter assembly line with components from four different manufacturers. The lens was made a by a company named Hayzak so they are known as the "Hayzak hatches."

Although a small handful of the parts used are probably gone for good, we have sourced about 90% of the components, including the lens, arms, dogs, hinges, and gasket.

How to identify the arm size: Just measure the steel rod in the arm. That measurement corresponds to the dimension listed in the name of the part.

Right-hand arm. The bottom of the handle is stamped "left" or "right." Bring your reading glasses. Bomar does this backwards, if you are on deck, looking aft, the handle on your right is the right handle, counterintuitive to me
