    Photo "Vanharouva (1/2)" is absolutely beautiful.  Good luck on your project and your voyage in the Baltic.

    Robin,
    We discussed parachutes and drogues here. Could you ask your questions within that topic, please, so that we keep the discussions in one place?

    Please note that mast goes through the fore hatch, I made an epoxylaminate which was bolted in place with sikaflex sealant and left unpainted so it serves as  skylight too. The new small window in fore end of doghouse tells that I am making some sort of inside steering and sailhandling system so some sort of visibility forward and up is necessary.I plan to make a parachute type of sea anchor ca 1,5 m ( 6ft) diam. Have anyone of you experience with such an anchor? I also plan to make a small trysail to hove-to  with the sea anchor and having the junk sail tied to gallows fore and aft . Is that a good idea?
    Have started working with alterations inside and the weather is slowly warming up with feezing degrees only at night and look forward to the coming summer with great expectations.
    The deck layout and trysail skech can be found in the technical forum illustration gallery.

    I think the gallows/grab rail that is shown on the drawing is an excellent idea, Robin. I have one in a similar place, and it protects that "bad step", as you climb in and out of the cockpit, slightly off-balance.

    Enjoy your cruise through the Baltic. I certainly did, when I transited the Gota Canal and wandered through the Aland Archipelago as far as Naantali, in 2004.
