I'd rather install the hatch hinged astern.
Much better to allow a bit of fresh air inside the cabin while anchored (and hence with the wind constantly on the nose).
You know, Vas is planning to go boating in some pretty warm climates, I reckon....!
There is a safety issue to consider here, the case of the hatch somehow opening at sea in heavy weather,
it is always preferable for the hatch hinge to be on the fwd part, hatch hinged fwd.
In this way the hatch will be forced closed be waves, reducing incoming water.
