Does anyone have any comments concerning the movement of the mainsheet from the companion way to the transom on a Monty 15? I would like to add a bimini and would like to cover as much of the cockpit as possible. With the mainsheet system in the companionway the size of a bimini is rather small. My thoughts are to use a mainsheet system similar to that of the Catalina 22 thus freeing up the entire cockpit. What do you think? I did this on a 22 footer years a ago and it worked fine. A good boomvang holds the mass down on a run. The only limitation is that you can't sheet in quite as tight. Any thoughts? Does anyone have a suggestion of bimini top installation? It's getting hot fast in Texas. :o)
David P.S.: I'm new to the Montgomery 15. I've been reading post for about three months but this is the first time I have ever responded. I sail out of San Antonio and picked up my Monty 15 a few months back. She is a great little sailor. I primarily sail Canyon Lake and coast around Corpus and Rockport. _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats
