What is claimed is: 1. A locker in the deck of a boat comprising: a top opening; an enclosure beneath the top opening; a lid for covering the top opening; a latching arrangement for releasably securing the lid in a closed position covering the opening, the latching arrangement including: a striker
What is claimed is: 1. A locker in the deck of a boat comprising: a top opening; an enclosure beneath the top opening; a lid for covering the top opening; a latching arrangement for releasably securing the lid in a closed position covering the opening, the latching arrangement including: a striker mounted to the lid; a latching member for engaging the striker to secure the lid in the closed position; an actuator for releasing the latching member from the striker to allow the lid to be opened; and the actuator being offset from the lid. 2. The locker of claim 1, wherein lid includes a top wall and a side wall, and wherein the striker is mounted near the side wall of the lid. 3. The locker of claim 1, wherein the actuator is mounted in a channel along a side of the top opening. 4. The locker of claim 3, wherein the channel drains beneath the deck into a bilge of the boat. 5. The locker of claim 1, wherein lid includes a top wall and a side wall, and wherein the striker includes a striker member that is at least partially recessed relative to the side wall of the lid. 6. The locker of claim 5, wherein the lid includes a notched region at the side wall, and the striker member is at least partially recessed within the notched region. 7. A boat comprising: a deck; a locker provided at the deck, the locker including: a compartment positioned beneath the deck; a top opening for accessing the compartment; a lid moveable between a closed position where the top opening of the locker is covered and an open position where the top opening is not covered; a striker member mounted to the lid; and a latching member movable between a latching position and a non-latching position, the latching member being adapted to engage the striker member when in the latched position to prevent the lid from being opened, the latching member allowing the lid to be opened when in the non-latching position, the latching member being mounted so as to not be carried by the lid when the lid is moved between the open and closed positions. 8. The boat of claim 7, further comprising an actuator for moving the latching member from the latching position to the non-latching position, the actuator being located at a location offset from the lid. 9. The boat of claim 8, further comprising a raised lip surrounding the opening, the actuator being located at a position outside the raised lip. 10. The boat of claim 8, further comprising a channel mounted to the deck, wherein the top opening of the locker includes a first side positioned opposite from a second side, wherein the lid is hingedly connected to the deck adjacent the first side of the top opening of the locker, wherein a portion of the channel extends along the second side of the top opening of the locker, and wherein the actuator and the latching member are at least partially mounted within the portion of the channel that extends along the second side of the top opening. 11. The boat of claim 7, wherein the top surface of the lid is flush with the deck when the lid is latched closed, and wherein the latching member lifts the lid to a non-flush orientation with respect to the deck when the actuator is actuated. 12. The boat of claim 7, wherein the striker member is at least partially recessed relative to a side surface of the lid. 13. A locker in the deck of a boat comprising: a top opening; an enclosure beneath the top opening; a lid for covering the top opening; a latching arrangement for releasably securing the lid in a closed position covering the opening, the latching arrangement including: a striker member mounted to the lid; a latching member for engaging the striker member to secure the lid in the closed position; an actuator for releasing the latching member from the striker member to allow the lid to be opened; and the actuator and the latching member being mounted so as to not be carried by the lid when the lid is moved between the open and closed positions. 14. A boat comprising: a deck including at least one channel; a locker provided at the deck, the locker including: a compartment positioned beneath the deck; a top opening for accessing the compartment, the channel extending along one side of the top opening; a lid moveable between a closed position where the top opening of the locker is covered and an open position where the top opening is not covered, the lid having a first side surface that faces the channel when the lid is in the closed position; a striker member mounted to the lid; a latching member mounted at least partially within the channel, the latching member being movable between a latching position and a non-latching position, the latching member being adapted to engage the striker member when in the latched position to prevent the lid from being opened, the latching member allowing the lid to be opened when in the non-latching position; and an actuator incorporated into the channel for moving the latching member from the latching position to the non-latching position. 15. A boat comprising: a first channel; a second channel spaced from the first channel; a first lid positioned between the first and second channels; a first compartment positioned beneath the first lid; a second lid separated from the first lid by the first channel; a second compartment positioned beneath the second lid; a latching mechanism disposed in the first channel, wherein the latching mechanism latches the second lid in a closed position, the latching mechanism including a striker member mounted to the second lid and a latching member incorporated into the first channel, the latching member engaging the striker member to latch the second lid in the closed position, wherein the latching member includes upper and lower arms that are moved to disengage the latching member from the striker member; a third lid separated from the first lid by the second channel; a third compartment positioned beneath the third lid; and the first channel, the second channel, the first lid, the second lid and the third lid defining at least a portion of a top surface of a deck of the boat. 16. The boat of claim 15, wherein the second lid is positioned at a port side of the first channel and the third lid is positioned at a starboard side of the second channel. 17. The boat of claim 16, further comprising a fourth lid positioned at a port side of the first channel and a fourth compartment positioned beneath the fourth lid. 18. The boat of claim 17, further comprising a fifth lid positioned at a starboard side of the second channel and a fifth compartment positioned beneath the fifth lid.
