Mine are more like 9 years old, and the front and rear hatches are going 
strong.  The day hatch had to be replaced last year. We'll see how long 
it holds out.

Many people with older covers, 5-8 years, seemed to be having no problems.  I no longer have that kayak, but a friend was interested in how the hatch covers are holding up now.  I would appreciate any feedback on how VCP hatch covers are holding up, especially from people with 2-3 yr old covers.
