OK, now I get how it folds...there's an inside hinge on 1st & 2nd companionway boards. Clever twist... Looks like the trade-off is that you can have three, two (bottom two), or no boards in place, but not just the bottom one because it has to fold down for #2 to fold down. cheers, John S.

No, it just sorta takes up space under there...but it's 3 hinged pieces closing the companionway which is pretty cool, it just folds down into a little pile on the top step, or open like the pic. Makes a decent little cocktail table. Meh? Jazz On Feb 21, 2016 3:31 PM, "John Schinnerer" <john@eco-living.net> wrote:
Oh, on the outside you mean! Couldn't figure out what you meant. Never seen anything like that on the few M17s I've seen in person. Is there any function to the space inside - storage or anything? Curious why anyone would put that there otherwise.
I thought you meant a step on the inside, which I've seen before...the Ensenada 20 for example has a removable step-down step inside (and a nifty flip-up table hinged on the inside of the companionway - would unfortunately be in the way of the CB winch on an M17).

Do these boats typically not have steps Tom? I have some sort of owner
made steps that are actually pretty cool, just the seal is questionable. I just assumed the original boat had the steps replaced? I' ll get a pic in a few minutes...heading out to wire up meter.

Sounds interesting. A step that can double as a table after the hatch
boards are in.
