Am I the only one getting hands and fingers sliced by the companionway doors/hatch on the new beneteau oceanis 41 (45, 48 should be similar)? These are made of clear acrylic-like material with edges with no rounding.
I am trying to find a better solution than band aids. It seems that:
1- I could use some Teflon spray to make the companionway cover slide easily
2- I could add a handle to the top of the cover so I don't have push the cover by the edge
3- I might be able to grind/sand the edges off to eliminate the danger
Seems like this could hurt more in an accident, we usually keep the edges hidden away behind the line bags.
