I finished the windlass install a week ago, but needed a canvas cover
for the bow to hide all the hardware that supports the windlass, and I
think it turned out pretty well.

Now to get that anchor system wet out on Suisun Bay chasing sturgeon -

Nice work! *Why not cover the whole bow area with something that you can

limited space now.


Well... of course the whole idea of a windlass is to stay off the bow.
But if I had to go forward, I could unbutton the canvas and walk up
there fairly well. But I don't plan on having to do that!

Thanks all for the kind comments.
