Stus-List Dodger install on a 27 MKIII

[Steve Thomas via CnC-List]

 So I got a good deal on a used dodger, and now I have to install it. Never 
having done this before I am a little intimidated at the prospect of drilling 
another 25 holes in the deck and maybe not getting them in the right place the 
first time. Anyone have any experience that they would like to share along this 
line? The canvas is secured to the deck with lift the dot fasteners. 

The traveller is on the bridge deck, so that limits how far back I can 
mount  the dodger, so getting the bow mounts positioned is the first thing, but 
even that raises questions. How much back angle on the bow? Will this become 
apparent if I put the canvas on it? 

It is a Natty dodger, with one main bow, and one daughter bow mounted to 
the main on slides.  

Any helpful advice, or a pointer to procedural methods would be 
appreciated.

Hi,
I have a Natty dodger ( and bimini ) that I bought from Genco a couple of years 
ago, installed it myself with the help of the installation sheet that came with 
it . I also bought the aft-welded handrail and side rails ( basically stainless 
handles ). Very nice to have something to hold on when leaving/entering the 
cockpit..

Even if the sheet was pretty clear, I ended up drilling the swivel holes on a 
different location than the instructions said .
Maybe you can write to Jonathan Genco and he can fax you the instructions for a 
CC27 or I can take pictures this week-end .

I wrapped each lift the dot screw with butyl, I did not have the time to do 
the drill-fill-drill epoxy recipe as I usually does though.
