Engine Hatch not working on 2007 260DA

[Guanxix]

Three problems: 1. My engine hatch is not working 2. my bilge pump is not working; 3. leak from engine coolant hose. Boat SOL.

Opened access hatch to pull pin, only to find it is not a pin but a nut and bolt. Cannot unscrew nut and bolt with one hand due to only being able to fit one hand in access hole.

Any ideas?

Had the marina mechanic take a look - they pulled the boat out. Turns out the engine hatch problem was due to a magnetic switch that keeps the hatch from opening if the stern door is closed. Funny thing is the boat was just commissioned, so this should not have been a problem. The factory installed released pin had been replaced with a nut and bolt. I didn't do it, so points back to marina.

In addition, the seawater in the bilge caused the starter to short out. Needs to be replaced. Still don't know why water is coming in. Mechanic will replace starter and try to find cause for water leak. Should cost me another BOAT - break out another thousand.

Strange issues to have right after commissioning and one 2 hour trip.
