Fran, I'll add a couple more things:
One thing that could make the project a wee bit more difficult is if the pulpit-maker wasn't careful in using fixtures to ensure that the legs of the pulpit end up where they are supposed to be. On one pulpit I removed, a leg had been forced into position because when it had been welded the leg wasn't properly aligned. When locating the pulpit, watch that the bolts will come into the cabin in a good place, i.e., not on the EDGE of the deck coring or, worse yet, into the edge of the hull. Or that the front of the pulpit isn't at risk of smacking anything on the trailer. Those are the sorts of mistakes I'm prone to making. Here's a picture of a 15, Storm Petrel, and BuscaBrisas in the background. In both cases the bow pulpit is ever-so-slightly forward of the projection of the stem.

What disadvantages are there to not having one on the boat? Fran _________________________________________________________________ Don't just search. Find.
