In Response To: Re: More info - stiffeners (george jung)

: If you're not using internal 'stiffeners' - what are you attaching your
: internal bungees to? I placed two internal stiffeners, with a 'hook' on
: each end, for each hatch cover. Is there another, better way to do this?

I just make wood eyes and epoxy them to the hatch and the hull bottom, run the bungies thru the eyes. My "big" computer crashed two days ago and all my pix are on it or I'd try to send one, luckily it was still under warranty. Trying to get used to the laptop's keyboard again .
