Knowing Jamescole it's probably clear C-fibre with picture of his face inlayed....


Oh now I want one. Maybe it could also have a wolf howling with a winter night motif. That would seal the deal...


EDIT - All kidding aside this is going to look killer James. 8-) 8-) 8-)


Since the Challenger is basically a splash of the DL I bet that hatch would fit your boat....seriously....you could chuck the kids back there with uncle Mitch and lock it down! Very safe...



That is not always true... I tried an Allison one on my boat and it did not work. :o

In all seriousness... Very cool James.

You are right. A soon to be infant and toddler would fit comfortably under it. No need for sunscreen now.

The decks are supposed to be similar, just cut down for the DL. I don't know if the cockpit area is cut or not.

Yeah it will be interesting to see what it looks like. I did clear gel to see if it looks good but if it doesn't look good I'll have it painted white to match the boat..

wondered if you've decided on a method for holding it open when needed! The skater hatch was a near lethal weapon a couple times,once coming down during race inspection! It had a coated wire cable that had to be fastened at the stern! kind of hard to do when your bobbing around in the water!

Well I don't think it is very heavy so if I put my boat in gear and keep moving the wind pressure should keep it up... If not I guess I'll have to get rid of it.

I doubt that would work,seeing that you use the deck for a windshield! :o
