The bottom contains an aperture so that the cover can be placed over the kennel to protect the kennel interior from the outside environment. To assist in installing the cover, a detachment mechanism is provided in order to detach a sidewall and the rear wall. This expands the bottom wall aperture. A channel, disposed around the bottom wall aperture, contains a drawstring operable to control the size of said adjustable aperture. Once the cover is installed, the detachment mechanism is used to re-attach the separated walls.

The latch mechanism defined in claim 4 further comprising a flexible fastener between said adapter and said hatch, fastened on one end, and latched to an anchor on the other whereby said latch can be unsecured or secured. 6. An accessory arrangement and components as defined in claim 1, wherein conforming said accessory hatch with said hull contours is achieved by molding said hull into a platform sized and tilted to provide a flat platform. 7. An accessory arrangement and components as defined in claim 1, wherein said manual pump holder is positioned on underside of said hull foredeck, said holder conforming to said pump and positioned whereby said pump will not conflict with said seated user, a friction surface is incorporated internal to said holder whereby said pump is not inadvertently dislodged. 8. An accessory arrangement and components as defined in claim 1, wherein said pump holder further includes opening(s) positioned to allow insertion of said pump through said accessory hatch and said holder extending toward bottom interior of said hull whereby operation of said pump can result in removal of water flooding interior of said hull. 9. The pump holder of claim 8, fitted with said pump in operating position, wherein a deck elastic placed in common configuration secures said pump while operationally positioned, wherein said elastic is tensioned by extension and secured over any non-moving protrusion of said pump thereby restraining said pump in an effective operating position enabling desirable one-handed pumping. 10. An accessory arrangement and component as defined in claim 1, further comprising a hull port, said port sized to fit draft tubes and alternatively sealed while said tubes are not in use, a removable cap with tether and seal. 11. The port cap defined in claim 10 wherein said cap is further refined with an aperture in said cap, a rotatable concentric disc internal and proximate and in parallel plane to top of said cap, an aperture in said disc sized to approximately match said draft tube diameter and said cap aperture wherein said apertures in alignment allow passage of said tube, said tube when positioned through said said aligned apertures wherein said cap may be affixed to said port achieving a sealed condition. 12. The disc in claim 11 wherein an appendage facilitates positioning of said disc aperture relative to said cap aperture thereby effecting alternate open and closed alignments of said apertures. 13. The port cap in claim 10 wherein said cap is tethered to said port using a flexible tether secured to said cap, said tether length predetermined wherein ample opportunity exists to allow manipulation of said tube, said tether being flexible, a compressible appendage at the terminus of said tether opposite the end fixed to said cap and of predetermined size allowing forced insertion through said port wherein anchorage is achieved by relaxed expansion of said appendage upon release of compressive force, resulting in an appendage size exceeding the port aperture. 14. An accessory arrangement and components as defined in claim 1, wherein said hatch cover is improved adding a tether anchorage attached to said cover on underside, said anchorage being compatible with a latching fastener fixed to said tether which is secured alternatively to said hatch, said hull, said pump holder, said companion hatch, said hatch cover. 15. An accessory arrangement and components as defined in claim 1, wherein said hatch covers are improved with a D-shaped bail style handle pivoted in the general plane of top of said hatch covers rotatable through approximately one half rotation, depressions i
