Bought a cuda 14 a few months back and access to the center hatch bothers me. So working on improving it. Did some searching on google and found a solution from an NCKA member! I think credit goes to Sonoramike? Anyway build the hinge today and have some bungee on order to get rid of the clip straps.

Yeah I don't see why not you would have to drill into your hull it look like though. I added mine right under an eyelet so no additional holes besides the two in the hatch.

Nope it drags the corner. I was gonna play with it a bit more but I decided I really don't care and left it.
