Please describe the project specifications

Sailboat Dodger. The customer wanted a dodger that had more clearance and visibility than their original dodger.


What is unique or complex about the project?

We did several modifications to this dodger to solve issues for this customer. first we raised this dodger 6" to give more headroom as they were always hitting their heads when entering the companion way. this also helps for more visibility. this dodger was originally was a 5 piece California style and we changed it to 3 panels to get rid of the zippers in the corners. this results in a much cleaner look and better visibility. Overall we were very happy with the end result
