T
he clients wanted to make
adjustments and add to their
current stainless steel dodger and
bimini frames to create a more functional
cockpit area for cruising. They asked that
strong, high-quality materials be used
so the fi nal result would be suitable for
offshore cruising. A signifi cant challenge
was using, adjusting and adding to the
existing stainless steel frames with the
goal of making the usable cockpit area
bigger while keeping project costs down
and ensuring that all aspects of the boat
remained functional, including winches,
self-steering mechanisms and saloon and
cockpit entries. The clients also requested
a soft, removable rain-catching device

to gather and collect fresh rainwater
from the runoff of the bimini top. It
was particularly challenging to keep the
enclosed cockpit ergonomically suited to
the crew on board given restrictions such
as boom height, a steep saloon entry, high
cockpit stern and folding solar panels.
