Perhaps an odd question, but it's the one thing I really don't like about the MK-II.
That compression post in the center of the passageway.
I'm not as young as I once was alleged to be.
Bending around that post is a pain.
I've been wondering about changing it out to a double post like the older boats use.
There is a bridge built into the cabin top. And it must be pretty solid to take the compression of the mast on the post.
So the first question is - how much difference is there between Mk-I and Mk-II in the structure under the mast.
If worse came to worse a layer of say 1/2" thick G-10 would be easy to add under the bridge for the dual posts.
Has anyone else given this any thought?
Do we have any prints of the layup schedule for that area?
