Abstract of the Disclosure A novel flush hasp for use in conjunction with a boat hatch, door or the like, the hasp having a base portion (20, 50, 80) adapted to be mounted on a boat deck or door jamb adjacent the hatch or door. This base portion is utilized in conjunction with a movable hasp member (12, 42, 72) adapted to be mounted on the hatch or door and movable therewith toward or away from engagement with the base portion. The base por- tion is provided with a locking means (30, 60, 90) rotatable between locking and release positions, whereas the movable hasp member is provided with an aperture (32, 62, 92) designed when adjacent the base member to receive the locking means and closely interact therewith. In accordance with the first two embodiments of this invention, the base portion has locking means in the form of a closed loop (30, 60) that may be rotat- ed while extending through the aperture of the movable hasp member so as to tightly engage the movable portion of the hasp and thus achieve a latching of the hatch or door in the closed position. At such time the closed loop may either be in a folded down position wherein the likelihood of a passen- ger on the boat tripping is minimized, or it may be utilized in an upstanding position so that the shackle of a padlock may be passed through the loop in order to achieve a locking o the hatch. Another embodiment of this invention involves the use of a rotatable member (90) having at least one lug (91) on its upper surface, which lug on occasion may enter the aperture (92) in the movable hasp portion. Locking means (98), preferably key (95) operated, is provided so that movement of the lug to the release position can be prevented except when it is desired to open the hatch.
