baitwell lid

[nancy kay]

hey bob,
   the lid/cover on my baitwell will not stay shut.  if i slam it shut and push down on it it will stay close momentarily.  is there a way to adjust the catch or cover so it will stay shut.  its not a real big deal but bounces open and shut when were in rough seas.  thanks korey

Korey,
Your lid has what we call a "slam latch".  Inside the baitwell on the top flange you'll an L-shaped "catch".  Loosen the 2 screws and push the catch up as far as it will go. Tighten the screws, and let me know the outcome.
