Out with the old and in with the new…

I have had four dorade boxes from Vetus mounted for my deck ventilators. I looked at them when they were delivered and thought: “Strange that they make really sturdy ventilators and mounting bases, but then put a crappy piece of plastic between them. Of course the crappy piece of plastic was not very durable, so last time we were out sailing one of them got whipped by a sheet and broke off.

So now I remade the box in carbon, hopefully it will stay put now…

    Too sexy. Now you can’t land at those gib New England yacht clubs that consider unfurled staysails too provocative a view for their member’s escorts. Coming to think of it, that’s probably an acceptable trade-off…

    Good work, more durable and better looking!
