Roger Dodger!!!
 
Here's a another look at my new dodger on the Alien website. I think the canvas
guy did a good job from my drawings and he even measured for my height and
Suzanne's. Saturday was really blowing at times with lots of whitecaps. We
sailed along with a well reefed Tartan 33 for a while, but were relieved to
finally anchor. Even at the helm seat, the dodger cuts the wind and cold by a
huge amount. The top pic shows profile.

Look good Bob. That will keep you warmer
and drier on the cold days.

Any problems with clearance on the winch
handles?

Yes!!! Switched to a 10 inch handle for the starboard winch. The port winch is
for the mainsheet, which rarely needs a handle anyway.
