Apply 3M electric tape to the whole contour of the lower pan lip to lessen or get rid of the vibrating cowl noise. There should be a vulcanized rubber band located under front cowl that holds onto hook's lenght, if missing bend hook a little to close gap for cowl to stay firm onto front pan.

Happy Boating

The seal or the latch may be damaged. Depending on the vintage, there may be upgraded/improved parts for each.
