Steve, et al... I think Steve has a CD Gulfstream (like me), so... what do you folks do? Can you twist around enough to see what's in the day hatch? Do you just feel around and pull what's necessary out? My hatch is teathered, of course, and getting it back on is a matter of pressing all edges with one hand (the other's useless, either with a paddle or too far away to do much good). Any good tips?
