I'm looking to install shade screens from OceanAir. I need the brand of hatch and size to order an exact fit.

I'm looking to fit the two forward hatches in the main cabin (helm and Admiral), and the "V" berth. Thanks
 
The brand is HMG HiTide and the size is a 16x16. Hope this helps!
 
I purchased 5 Ocean Air SFSS-40-W-RP Skyscreens. They exactly fit the five hatches on my R25 - look wonderful, keep out the sun by day and the bugs in the evening.

But, two of the five failed they first week they were installed. The screen became disconnected from the attachment bar and zipppppp, rolled up in its holder, never to be seen again.

Ocean Accessories replaced the first one immediately.

They are dragging their anchor on the second - since I believe this is a manufacturing defect (I've had a dozen over they years), I'm concerned about the long term ability to keep the working. I offered to buy one as a spare (my $$$) and they refused to sell it to me.

The sky screens are the ideal complement to the Ranger hatches - fit perfectly, color matches, hardware blends in -- but their service has really slipped.
