In Response To: S&G: recessed coaming idea *Pic* (Tony W.)

The first thing I thought when I looked at your drawing was "Cool". The second thing I thought was "in the case of a non accessible grab loop (i.e. stuffed under skirt) can I get my fingers in there to grab & pull the skirt out from the side of the coaming?".

Is this a concern at all?
