Tobago 35: Goiot Escape Hatch for Tobago 35

[Sonosailor]

I am searching for parts - especially the gaskets - for the Goiot escape hatches on the Tobago. Mine is a 1996.

I have measured the exterior dimensions of this hatch as 19 3/4" x 14 1/2".

The Rig Rite website makes me think the match is the Tradition model no. 34.20, with a lens of 351 x 207 mm. The site info suggests the Tradition models become Tradition Escape Hatch models with the change to escape hatch handles and corner handle seats.

Can anybody verify this with their experience?

I believe the original gasket is a rectangular cross section of approx. 10 mm x 8 mm. I used to see it in chandleries, but not recently.

Hello,

Just curious if you ever found a solution to this post? I am in escrow on a 1994 Tobago and I think this will be a maintenance item for discussion.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I had the correct gasket sent from here:

However, since then, I see the stuff sold in the chandleries of the French islands on large rolls.
