Companionway Doors

[Don Silsbe]

I just stumbled onto this clever way to deploy a companionway door.  What are the chances of incorporating this into the mark 3’s?

The definition of "cool...but". Someone was like make it do this and some engineer probably spent a week designing it so it would work and not be as good as a simple lift out. Don't drop anything down that crack. hahaha

That Hallberg-Rassy money needs to get you something.

 

Reminds me of a story from the summer of 2024. I had Skeene in Southest harbor, ME. Took my 2 gallon gas can to the Marina gas pump where a new Hinckley powerboat with 4 huge outboards was taking on 100's of gallons of gas. The guy from Hinkley asked me if my boat was the Core Sound which I confirmed. He pulled the nozzle, put it in my gas can, pumped two gallons and told me he loved the design and was sure me and my friends were having the most fun in the Marina. I tried to pay, but he wouldn't let me. 

 

I like my hatch boards.
