From what I've read, my '04 265 probably has Tempress hatches. Check the o-ring on your Beckson hatches to be sure the ones I referenced are good for your hatches. Mine are 6-1/8" OD and 3/16 thick.

I just change the entire plate out every 7-10 years. I noticed they fade and get a bit brittle. Beckson sells them. I seal with silicone (GE Almond). Never an issue. I use the screw in model on the eurotransom. Don't want one of them popping out in rough seas.

I have the 6 inch Beckson pry out deck plates. I ordered the DP6 o ring from Partsvu. It was a Beckson product. The o ring is about 1/4 the thickness of mine. Where can I get a thick one?

9452K515 Dash number 359 $8.66/5-pack 3/16" x 5 3/4" x 6 1/8" - OEM size.
9452K514 Dash number 358 $8.30/5-pack 3/16" x 5 5/8" x 6" - One size smaller - plates go in and out better. My choice. $8.30 for 5.

Harbor Freight Super Lube 3 oz. clear synthetic grease $8.99.

Check the diameter of the underside of the 8" plate. If it's 8" this should work. That's how I sized the other o-rings. 9452K393 $8.57 for 5.

Just ordered both 6in and 8in sets. Taking a risk but asssume they will work as my current gaskets turned out to be kind of dried out, probably never lubed.
