Lenco Marine Electric Hatch Lift 20784-001, 24 Inch Stroke, 12 Volt

The Lenco Marine 20784-001 is a 12 volt electric hatch lift built to raise and support boat hatches, engine covers, and deck lids without manual strain. It uses an electric actuator with a 24 inch stroke, extending from a retracted length of 41 inches to a full extended length of 65 inches, giving it a strong range of travel for larger hatch openings. The unit ships with 2 foot leads and Deutsch connectors already attached, simplifying wiring into a 12 volt electrical system and reducing installation time. Its housing and components are constructed of plastic, chosen for corrosion resistance in the marine environment where metal linear actuators would be prone to saltwater damage over time. At 10.25 pounds, it is a self-contained unit designed to be mounted between a hatch and its supporting structure, powering the hatch open and closed at the push of a switch rather than relying on gas struts or manual lifting. This hatch lift is intended for boat builders, refit projects, and owners upgrading heavy hatches, engine hatches, or deck lids to powered operation. Because it is an electric linear actuator rather than a passive gas spring, it can hold a hatch open at any point in its stroke and does not lose lifting force over time the way gas struts eventually do.
