Today it was 92 with high humidity. That is not uncommon here (in KY). Just adding info to the discussion I started about ventilating an M 15's cabin. Phil
Beckson is the name of the manufacturer of deck plates. They make 4", 6", and 8" screw in plates. I don't know what putting in one of these deck plates would do to the structural integrity of the walls in the cockpit, but the idea sounds pretty intriquing. Joe
When the boat heels and you are bracing your feet on the sides of things, will your foot punch a hole in a plastic deck plate?

Todd, Good point. I don't know. Like I said, this was something I had read about. I know that dorads aren't worth the expense and effort, as I habe been on many boats with them and all the owners agreed that they, at best, gave about as much air movement as a kitten's breath.

They also seem pretty stable on decks where people can walk all over them... Joe ----- Original Message ----- From: <htmills@zoominternet.net> To: "'For and about Montgomery Sailboats'" <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Thursday, June 26, 2008 10:12 PM Subject: Re: M_Boats: Ventilation
