: True, true!

: I just like to get a lot of input on things, look them over,
: perhaps make them different than what others have done,
: maybe even improve it.

: I've learned a lot already!

Btw, my NDK Greenlander had a really bad towing rig (since replaced in different locations) on the center of the back deck, the tow line would snag the raised tail of the stern when towing and try to capsize you, not fun. Removed it and put in a Beckson screw in hatch with their nylon bag, helps that this boat has a flat rear deck, without an extra bulkhead, just two hatches in the same space. The regular rear hatch is so far aft that the forward part of that compartment was very hard to access thru it, now just unscrew the day hatch cover, pop out the bag and I've got great access to the whole compartment. Btw, doesn't leak a drop.
