Yep probably to gain access to the transom re-inforcing, they are not cheap so give them a good clean and put them back in.

Hi they are watertight hatches to enable you to pump out any water ingress there are also sometimes bungs on the port and starboard sealed bouyancy tanks under the deck depending on the set up of the boat Bob

Thank you. I wasn't exactly sure if they were buoyancy tanks or access hatches.
