I've only had the privilege of crawling aboard one too, Dennis'. I suspect if I owned her she'd lose the lifelines & stanchions. After that occurred, I bet I wouldn't have any real complaints about the width of the side decks.
www.todspages.net/images/M23.jpg I'm 90% sure Pretentious will be losing hers and growing a bigger toerail. I've taken them off and already I like the boat better! The CD33 I crewed on had them, of course, and the dang things seemed to pose more of a hazard than a help. I'll take plenty of good beefy hand holds like Rick made for Bluebird, and a toe rail, thank you. jmo, Tod _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats
