    With the permission of fellow British boat owners, I would like to take 
up this challenge. We'll both store our paddle floats inside a compartment, 
and from the 20' offshore we'll both open our hatches retrieve the paddle 
floats and reseal the hatches. Of course my paddle float will be stored in my 
day hatch, but that shouldn't matter very much.  ;-)
