Has anyone come across this style of plastic inspection hatch (6 inch or 8 inch) which can be opened with a winch handle. They are so much easier to tighten and undo than the usual ones. I can't find any in UK chandlers but I seen them on a French catamaran (Lagoon or Leopard) and also on an American trimaran that was re-fitted in France. But the only ones I can find online in a Google search are metal and very expensive and heavy. The link to the image below is from a manufacturer in China. Any suggestions gratefully received.
