Non skid deck paint
If you want to save weight (and be able to reduce the windage of the top
during a hurricane for example) by having removable Sunbrella side panels, you can glue plastic (pvc ?) boltrope track to the side edges for the panels to attach to. Easy to incorporate clear plastic windows in the Sunbrella so you can see the sails, and cover them as appropriate. "Evan Gatehouse" wrote in message ...

I had a guy that makes tuna towers and the like out of 1 1/2 inch aluminum pipe build a frame to my over all design. The details were his. I had inspected several bimini frames on similar boats to determine what I wanted. The hard top was the middle 6 feet of width (Sunbrella on the extremities), and he had made this of some 1/2 inch thick some kind of hard foam material Thanks for that idea. I was wondering how the heck I was going to furl the mainsail on my boat now that I have a bit cabin. Now I have a use for the few left over sheets of Corecell I still have... Evan Gatehouse |
