Took a cue from boob**** and looked around the garage, found 3 items that
were collecting dust, put em on ebay and got a couple hundred bucks for
them. I'll have to look in the barn next.

Alien has had a 2nd Xmas this year with my Ebay sideline and boat

sales....

Hope all of you are enjoying this season, which has started off nicely

here.

Sunday had some flukey air, but plenty of it.

Here's Alien with her new dodger. She also has a lot of new hardware not
pictured.

We had a dodger on the O'Day...hated the thing and don't have one on
Chantuese...they impede vision, create drag, and make a further deck
hazard....we decided foulies and ski goggles work just as well and since the
slide hatch keeps out the weather from the companionway, there was no need.
You have to remember, though, that Bob has to have one to protect all that
fair skin of the alien ladies he entertains....

On some boats they look good, and perform a needed function, on other boats
it looks like the owner is simply buying all the 'bolt on' crap he can
afford.

Don't know about Lake Michigan, the prevailing winds and orientation might
mean they get some bigger waves up there, but on Lake Erie, you might need a
dodger once in a blue moon. I would imagine the same goes for LIS. Now a
bimini, otoh, would be fairly useful just about anywhere.

Yup, might get a bimini one of these days. I realize the benefits of a
dodger, I just don't like the look (on a small boat).

I noticed in several of your pics that the radar is angled up 5 or 10 degrees.
You should correct this because the beam width on that unit is only 12.5 degrees
below horizontal. If you bow comes up a few degrees (as in, when powering) you
won't see anything ahead except low flying aircraft.

What with the way the dodger attaches to the side looks like it is not
snug to the combing, like it sticks out a few inches on the side and
is a trip hazard?

I like the look of the window being all clear, many doger have to
much canvas trim. Looks ok

I'm going to have to look into buying Oars wholesale and listing them
to give you competation.

You need to get up to 2 solid pages of listings to steadly make real
money!

Nice Books BTW. Amazed me! I sold a 12 page steam engine book that I
bought for 1.00 for 375.00 on ebay.
