The forepeak/cargo hold door has been fitted

This is the door to the front of the boat that will create a watertight closure at the mast bulkhead with the addition of some neoprene seals and some fastenings (both still to be added. I have added a retaining cleat and a wood fairlead with some shockcord - this is seen on the top left of the door. The retaining cleat is a multipurpose hook that has already gained some hangers-on.

The door will most probably gain some add-ons in addition to the compass - to become a navigation station along with the already fitted chart table/bunk insert - many things on Cagarro are designed to be multi-use.

I am looking at adding a holder for the mobile phone that has backup charts added to it, and ais via wifi to the ais transponder -  my dividers and parallel rules, pencils pens etc etc.

any suggestions are most welcome.

 Cagarro Sails

Went for a sail today - Very, very happy with the performance and got to finalize the location
of the jib sheet low friction rings. Cagarro handles beautifully, responds to each puff of wind and accelerates like a race car - heels but not too easily and responds well -  light but positive on the tiller and feels top notch  - super responsive - more to follow SOON.

Oh and the new Mercury outboard is a pleasure.
