Whale on the bow in the Gulf Islands of British Columbia

I hope nobody rolls an ankle, I meant them to keep the crew safer. The wedges are 3x3. Before it was just 1x1 square coamings that were too easy to slip off - especially dangerous going down the lee side to ease the jib. Maybe I will paint the top of each wedge a contrasting colour. Fun project but took way longer than I thought it would.

My winter project almost done - replaced soft core, glassed in foot wedges, then kiwi gripped

J/92 we hit 16.4 kts last weekend

I have a 1 x 2 ft patch to do in the cockpit of my J/92. Planning to do it from above and was wondering the cloth layup to use? Also I was going to try and do this at the dock under my boom tent, rather than hauling, taking out the mast and finding shelter. Am I asking for trouble?

There is one listed for $40k here... http://www.sailboatlistings.com/cgi-bin/saildata/db.cgi?uid=default&manufacturer=J%20Boats&view_records=1&sb=date&so=descend

I'm interested in finding a used J88 and am in Vancouver Canada.
