The companionway is looking smart. Hoping that it won't leak (too much). Will be adding a lock!

Marko, the open-ended side decks started life as a styling preference I think but also serves the practical purpose of making the spinnaker block fastenings accessible without an extra pair of hatches an source of leaks). The downside is a slight loss of reserve buoyancy in a knock-down condition, but I suspect that 'slight' is not significant. It looks good!
