I really like the maibu hatches, they lock into place and dont leak a single drop, unlike the ocean kayak hatches which almost sunk my yak once surf launching in way too big of waves, ocean kayak ones just dont seal as well. But both brand of kayak have there stong points and weakness. I could complain about weeknesses in both but kayaks are geat and have a time and place to be used, i dont belive there is a kayak that can do everything perfect so choose the one with the features you like and that will work for you.
