Finding got around to documenting one of this spring's boat projects http://www.catsmeow.org/bowplatform/index.html Nice work, although I don't like to use plywood as a backing. Too compressible and subject to rot. Recent experiments suggest that thermoformed polypropylene (commonly used for cheap cutting boards) makes a good backing. Previously I used Lexan but that's more difficult to seal and/or glue into place. What do you think of the Bulwagga anchor? Fresh Breezes- Doug King |

The first step was making a prototype out of cardboard to get the dimension correct. The cutout is for the forestay attachment. WOW! An oragami bow sprit! Do you think it will hold up in weather? -- katysails s/v Chanteuse Kirie Elite 32 http://katysails.tripod.com "Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea." - Robert A.

You know a better place to store your boom inthe winter? The garage? You mean haul it home? We don't have a vehicle it would fit into. There's nothing wrong with it living in the v-berth over the winter. It's very dry in there. -- katysails s/v Chanteuse Kirie Elite 32 http://katysails.tripod.com "Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea." - Robert A.

Isn't a boom associated with something as fast as a speeding bullet?
