I've been active in the commercial marine business since 1955. Forty years of service as a marine surveyor, and a few thousand barges later, I found a way to teach old dogs new tricks. My modified hatch dogs make maintaining a vessel easier, and more efficient. I’ll even unconditionally accept returns on any new dogs... a promise I’ve never had to keep. You have my personal guarantee on all materials and workmanship.
