Are there any issues with walking or standing to these two areas of the boat? How much weight can they hold? Is there a factory listed rating in the owners manuals for these boats?

The foredeck on my 22 and the Minx were cored w/mahogany plywood....I don't know about later ones....chen it changes to end grain balsa at about the windshield. The hatch is cored with balsa also.
And unless you weigh much more than 250#, it'll probably be okay.

I would worry a little about the hatch, it is single layer core, I would limit the weight to the lip area. The fore deck is 7 layers of foam and glass it is very sturdy.

There isn't much of anything about the individual boats in the "owners manual".
That is practically an oxymoron. Or a joke, take your pick.
