I want to thank you all for the input, This board is more real help than all the others combined. I think that from a material cost stand point and taking into consideration the thickness of the material the plexiglass will work for the application. That being said 3/8" Lexan is more that strong enough and may conform to the curve without heat. I was going to bed the panel with silicon because of the compatibility with polycarbonate, any opinions on alternate bedding? While I'm on the subject I have heard that Bomar sells a kit with then lens and sealant for their cast aluminum hatches, anyone purchaced one? I am on a roll and if the companionway works out I may attempt to fab the rest myself.
