Anyone know the specs to replace the glass on the forward hatch?
Do I need to replace the whole hatch if only the glass is cracked?

Get the model and serial number off the hatch. If it is a Bomar, they can send you a replacement lens. They will also advise that you change out the gasket. Removing the old silicone sealant from the hatch frame is truly a slow, messy job, but it has to be done to install the new lens so it won't leak.

Re: Forward hatch on 32+2
A lot of those hatches are likely not glass so you could probable get one cut to replace the space. The gasket though could well be a problem ... I agree with the above advice as first line of action !
The hatch in our 32ft CB is plexiglass and has a solar extraction fan in the centre. Hatch looks original to the boat /96
