Fitting an access hatch

HI IVE JUST BOUGHT MYSELF A SECOND HAND BIC OUASSOU SIT ON KAYAK. AT THE FRONT OF THE BOAT IS A CHILD SEAT WHICH LOOKS LIKE A PERFECT PLACE TO FIT AN ACCESS HATCH, IS THIS A GOOD IDEA, HAS ANY 1 DONE THIS B4 AND WHEN/IF I CUT THE HOLE WOT WILL I FIND INSIDE (REINFORCMENT) NO SPACE??? ANY INFO ON THE MATTER WILL BE KINDLY RECIVED THANKS

You can do it
Tom at topkayaker.com can likely tell you what hatch will fit best. I would not do it if you plan on white water or surf with the boat. But other than that I think the hatch will be handy.
