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?

You're right to a degree, but it seems to be pretty snug, maybe a bit under an
inch of play at the top of the coaming. I could add one more fastner easily.
Everyone likes it so far and it's not too tall. I'll add a new pic for a
profile view. I think the designer did a good job keeping in with the lines of
the boat. In just one week, two other sailboats saw it and wanted his number.
He's more expensive than Doyle or UK though. But at least it's not a cookie
cutter dodger like the ones I usually see.
Today I'm installing a Wempe Barometer, Hydrometer and clock. all matching
brass instruments with opening bezzles.

Dump the 'hydrometer'.

Guess thats OK if you like Whimpy stuff cluttering your bulkheads.
I have WWII US NAVY issued matching Chelsea instruments, the bezels
open on them to! The clock came of the USS Oklahoma's bridge.

Does your clock chime bells? Is it a 24 hour clock? Is it wind or
quartz?

Bob doesn't worry about tripping. He thinks fenders lying around
are ok.

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.

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.



Glad to see that my name carries on with imposters, lame as they are!
Take care

Perhaps the fenders will act as cushions now?

You're expecting too much from them.

Yep, useless in a boat.

It also reads temp. and it's part of the set, which is very attractive.

No it's designed to rip off in a gale.
