[C38] Another Toe Rail question/bow roller

[Walt Lloyd]

Peg,

I just installed a bow roller from Garhauer that I really like.  it is on the 
port side of the forestay and I used starboard to level the roller to the toe 
rail which it crosses.  It is 2 1/2 by 24 inches and looks just right to me.
I did have to do a little grinding and drill an additional hole but I found a 
local machine shop that made quick work of cutting through the stainless.  When 
I saw this set up on another 38 I had to do it to mine.

Max,

We bought a couple of Shaeffer cleats to use on the outboard track amidships.  I 
thought we'd only use them for spring lines during winter storms, but since we 
moved to a downwind slip they are always in use. A great investment.

I'd love to see how these forepeak modifications turn out. I've been wanting a 
bow roller for IRIE, having the anchor live in the anchor locker is a pain, but 
haven't seen anything on other boats that looks right.
