Re: Bow Pulpit
I have a pulpit on mine and love it. I made it out of strips of teak 1.5" by 3/4" by 24". Glued them together and stainless allthread holding them together. I also added an aluminum chain plate with a roller. I was doing a lot of diving then and usually had 25 or 30 feet of chain on the anchor. This protected the teak. I run the line down through a deck pipe into the anchor locker. One trick I did learn was to put a piece of drain pipe (4" black accordian style) between the deck and the top of the shelf in the cabin. This helps the line in and out and keeps waterout of the cabin and off the shelf. This project is well worth doing. It adds a lot to the boat, cosmetically and usability.
