I had a Pegasus 700 that had a removable cockpit floor, not just a hatch.
I was always nervous of it leaking. Properly sealed it would be fine but everyone trampling on the cockpit floor soon compresses the foam gasket and makes it leak. Rain, spray. Any green ones. Straight into the rear of the boat (and into the engine room if you have one fitted).
I guess that if you change the gasket every year and use additional sealer it should be OK.
