Lewmar Flush Hatch dominates new boat launches

by Media Services on 21 Oct 2008
It’s been three years since the world’s leading name in marine equipment, Lewmar launched the Flush Hatch, and still today the flush deck hatch is receiving rave reviews from aftermarket customers and boat builders alike.

Originally launched in August of 2006, Lewmar’s Flush Hatch has developed in the international sailing and power boating communities as an industry standard, and the only serious choice when building or refitting a world-class power or sailing yacht.

This fall at the Southampton Boat Show in the UK, Lewmar’s Flush Hatch was overwhelmingly supported onboard this year’s nominees for the European Yacht of the Year Award. Lewmar commanded the majority of the 15 boats entered in this year’s awards with 6 of them featuring the Flush Hatch, more than any other manufacturer. Being onboard these world-class sailing yachts is truly proof that Lewmar’s Flush Hatch is the industry standard and remains the world’s choice for a flush deck hatch.

Lewmar created the flush deck hatch to be low-cost and designed the product so that it was completely flush on the boat deck, giving the end-user a great value and an aesthetically pleasing topside. By simply reinventing the way a hatch is assembled, Lewmar was able to offer high volume boat builders super yacht styling at a fraction of the price, which today has become the worldwide industry standard.

Lewmar Flush Hatches are designed and manufactured at Lewmar’s world headquarters in Havant, U.K. For more on Lewmar, their quality line of hatches and portlights, and the Flush Hatch, please visit Lewmar.com.
