Contessa Head Replacement -- Hole in Cabin Liner1338 viewsThis image shows the hole that remained when I was finished playing with the chainsaw. My thought had been good access to this dead space on the boat. Not only did I want to use more of this area but I was also thinking that it might be a good place to fit the compressor for a refigeration unit.

Blue Peter -- Mainsheet Arrangement1879 viewsBlue Peter lives in Charlottetown PEI. This was an interesting main sheet solution. The key to it is the heavy brass ring supported by a bungee to the pulpit. Each of the thee legs from this ring has its own tackle, making it possible to create the same effect as a sheet and traveller.
