The electronics suite consist of a compass, depth detector, VHF radio, LORAN, GPS, a marine stereo and iPod with six speakers round out the entertainment system. An additional winch was installed on an extended trailer winch post for the mast raising or lowering process which takes about two minutes on a bad day.

A cockpit tent offers relief from the sun while at anchor. I use variations of red and green lines for Port and Starboard control of the sails. Ideas such as a tiller tamer and deck hardware to allow all control lines to lead back to the cockpit for easier control of the sailing surfaces.
