Interesting... it looks like the cleat hitch on the boat is improperly tied.
Hard to tell of course...

Oh, and Joe...as you can see the 35s5 also has nice sunbrella covers
for all of her ports and hatches....in addition to her nice roll-away
interior shades.

It's a shame the sumbrella constantly rubbing against the Lexan will
cause it to dull and becomed all scratched up. The covers to avoid
crazing is a good ideal. After about 10 yrs you will have to replace
the ports. I notice no thimble and schackles on your dock, also what
with that stern line?


You can even see the rolled up cover for the companionway and forward
hatch. This keeps those large ports craze-free and also makes for a
very dark interior to say the least.

Making the big deck plexi glass usless.

BTW, Joe...any big wave will stove in your PH windows with ease.

My bow is faired fast enough to rise to any wave not rolling, and I
have the sail and HP to rise above most waves. That said, when I
installed the hard top on the wheelhouse I designed it to be sheered
off in a big wave, and easy to remove, If I decide to go back to a
bimini. Only has 4~ 1/2" stainless steel bolts bolting it to the steel.
If I see... lets say a 30-40 ft roller and I know I'm going to plunge
thru it, I will duck.
