After 2 seasons cruising our stern extensions have proved to be a success. They have made the boat faster, allowed us to carry a heavy dinghy and outboard with the minimum of hobby horsing and access to and from the boat is so easy just like a dinghy dock.
This was a fairly easy project that did not compromise the integrity of the hulls and there was no rigging issues.Sam The Skull is stored at Titusville Florida.

Re: Stern Extensions
Having seen Jon's extensions up close I can verify that they are extremely well done and have a much better integrated look than the others I've seen. Now if we can only get Jon to set up shop and start cranking these out. I volunteer to let you practice on Dream Catcher first .......

Re: Stern Extensions
These extensions were built as part of the boat and not a bolt on piece.

Re: Stern Extensions
You tricked me, Dave. I thought "A PDQ just crossed the Pacific?" and clicked your link.
