Help!!!!!!!! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Yakkid · 03-16-2015, 08:39 PM

Okay so i talked to the guys at oex about a bow hatch i lost in the surf they told me to ask anyone on here if they would have this discontinued bow hatch. its just the bow hatch for the malibu pro explorer. Really eager to get back on the water. Please let me know if someone has an extra. It is not the low profile gator hatch. OEx said it is not supposed to be on the kayak fushing gear anymore so please anyone that wants to get rid of it or i will pay please need it.

You have been trying to find one of these for like 2 years, from your previous threads. I'm sure OEX can get you one of those OG hatches, but if not, just buy the gator hatch, and get back on the water.

And yeah finally getting back into it and oex said exactly " we dont have that model" keelen that works there said that. He said try this forum which i am so anybody out there have this style hatch lying around.

2 Years?? Get some wood, draw an outline, cut it out, bungee it on and go fishing!! If your worried about water leaking it doesn't sound like it worked very well originally anyway...since it fell off.

Sorry Kidd,
I recently threw one away.
Wish I saw this posted a couple weeks ago. I'm sure you will find one eventually. Best of luck.
