Deck Pipe

This is a little tubular fitting that I made to help transfer the anchor rope from below deck to above deck when anchoring. (the white pvc looking thing ) You would think all sailboats should come with it, but not the Columbia.

Boom Tent

I had this made from boat tarp material and mounted it on a pvc tubular frame. Very easy to set up and take down on the water. The humidity at night is always high so this will keep us more comfy.
The idea is to keep the sailors dry that (draw the short stick) and have to sleep out in the cockpit. Captains never ever draw "short sticks"...
