musicmanx2 Posted April 22, 2022 Report Share Posted April 22, 2022 Just wonder if anyone has played around with any type of design? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul356 Posted April 23, 2022 Report Share Posted April 23, 2022 I have a dodger, if that's of any interest. I put it up mostly when camping, but it's possible to sail with it up. Let me know if you'd like any details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul356 Posted April 23, 2022 Report Share Posted April 23, 2022 One more thought. A friend uses a large umbrella for a bimini. Easy up, Easy down, easy to move if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicmanx2 Posted April 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2022 Yes I have seen the Unbrella idea and might go that way for camping or just to get out of the sun for a bit. Ive seen a small pop up tent too for camping. I will be camping and exploring the southwest coast of Florida when I get this boat going. No one has come up with one for the stern of the boat like I have seen on SeaPeal 21 boats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PadrePoint Posted April 24, 2022 Report Share Posted April 24, 2022 I had snapped these from a video. It appears to be both an umbrella and a canopy. I plan to try this out soon in my CS15. I need to epoxy coat the pieces for my sleeping platform for the aft cockpit. (Not shown: the mizzen mast would be placed into the forward step… in the forward thwart; it’s a position that I can use to fly only the mizzen sail without the main.) And, since this photo appeared in the Dinghy Cruising Association Journal recently, I think I’m COMPELLED to try this out: This is a thread I had started posing a similar question. Lots of ideas on the thread. This is a thread I started while pondering how to make a sleeping platform in my CS15: I’ll post a couple photos of what I came up with… just a bit more work to do.

musicmanx2 Posted April 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2022 Thanks for all the photos. I plan to use the tent and umbrella idea too for camping on my new CS-17. The umbrellas have side windows too to let the air flow through. They would nice to get out of the sun aswell. I found them on the net and are not high priced.
