You don't need a seahood to have a good fastening point for a dodger. You can put a stainless steel bar over the main hatch and attach the dodger to it. That's what we did. It's strong enough for a 300 pound man to do chinups on it. We don't need a seahood with the dodger (but of course we're not venturing out in bad storms.)

We would like to add one for additional safety and to serve as a fastening point for a decent dodger. Any thoughts about where I could locate one, new or used?
