Here is a link to a great blog post with pictures for deck hatch troubleshooting and repair.  I also attached the PDF version on this post in case the link does not work.

 With Bomar hatches most leaks come from the joint of plexiglass  and aluminum. I redid mine with new plexiglass and a adhesive that was strong enough I didn't use the screws to attach. That eliminated all those holes and their potential for leaks.
