Anybody Need Leaky Malibu Hatch Advice? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I picked 2 Stealth blems that had hatches that freely flowed water. I went and looked at some new non blem Stealths and the hatches looked to be about the same as mine, so I decided to figure out a solution. In the end I managed to seal them up pretty well and was wondering if there was any interest out there for me to do a write up on the process. My kayaks are still not water tight, but they are significantly dryer and the hinges are under much less stress than they were. So... Does anybody need me to share what I came up with, or has everyone already solved this problem on there own?
