You can probably find a local plastics shop that can make you a new one out of acrylic.

Do a search on hatch or cuddy hatch and I think you'll find some other members that went through the same process you're starting.

Not sure what happened with the PM:
Try Plastics America on Adamo Drive in Tampa... take your original and they can make a copy for you out of whatever material you want.
Ive purchase a bunch of lexan/starboard/pvc material from them- good prices and easy to deal with.

Ive used D&D plastics in Pinellas Park in the past with good luck.  They are off of US 19 and 70th ave I think.
