Mast Pullpit

[Jerry]

Has anyone installed mast a pullpit on a H37C. I have an 1980 model and the Admiral wants me to install a set because she is concerned I will fall while working around the mast at sea. I would not mind them to provide storage for the dink motor and other "necessary" items. I am concerned that I may drill through an electrical wire drilling through the coach top to through bolt them.Jerrys/v Makai

Gene Gruender's outboard mount

Gene Gruender posted the following link to some pictures that shows mostly stanchions he built, but is has a couple of good photos of an outboard mount on the cabin roof near the mast:http://users2.ev1.net/~rainbowchaser/ll/lifeline.html

I had a set made for me and installed them myself. 7/8 stainless, three legged, approx 24 inches high. outboard leg is against the handrail, other two parallel. Thru bolted three bolts each foot, no problem with wires. Strong enough and large enough to wrap myself around one while reefing. Have served just fine from Tampa to Borneo so far. sorry no pics.
