Hobie Door Seals - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Not sure if this is normal or not but the doors on my kayak hatches and bait tank are usually hard to close, before most trips I spray a little WD40 on the inside of the hatch and door seals just to help when I close them. Is this normal on most Hobies? I don't recall if they were like this when I bought the kayak but I have noticed that some of the seals appear to be slightly stretched. Again, just curious if other Hobies have the same issue or if my seals have goes back and need to be replaced.
