1. Starboard Lazarette, hull side: two additional shelfes was constructed, glassed in and then painted. Allows significantly better use of this large space.

2. Starboard Lazarette, cockpit side: a 1" x 4" piece of wood was glassed in (just below the lazarette opening) and painted. Then line holders were attached. Allows neat storage of  docklines, spinnaker sheets, extra halyard, etc.

3. Edson Cockpit Table (closed and stored). Made of starboard. Heavy, solid and no maintenance. Easy to stores or erect. I've had teak tables in the past but wanted to avoid the maintenance.

4. Edson Cockpit Table (up with leaves closed).

5. Edson Cockpit Table (up with leaves open).

6. Drink/Binoc Holder. (See #7,8 for mounting clamps.) Also made of starboard. Not as heavily made as I would like but it does the job. I like the way the two end holders allow for a mug with a handle.

7 & 8. Raymarine MFD (Multi Function Display). Mounted using a unique system designed by my electronics installer that allows the display to swivel about 55 degrees either left or right (to allow viewing from every helm position) and to tilt up or down. Also shows small storage area created in binnacle where Simrad multi had originally been installed.

9. Raymarine 7000 Autopilot Display.Port side. Also shows winch handle holder for easy reach for genoa trimmer.

10.Winch Handle Holder (starboard).

11. Simrad Wind & Multi Displays.  Mounted on starboard bulkhead (see #12) to be visable to all.

12. Simrad Displays plus Line holders. Starboard bulkhead. Line holders are Beneteau product. I replace the shock cord annually since it deteriorates in the sun. I've used these for 8 years and they work well to keep lines in place and readily accessible. When sailing (after raising the main) I remove the mainsheet (black with white fleck) from the line holder, take 4 wraps around the winch and open the main sheet clamp. In this way, the main sheet is immediately available for required adjustments.

13. Line holder Buttons (close up).  Starboard.
 

14. Custom Companionway Doors (closed). Screens with acrylic inserts (shown). I re-screened this year and used a heavy duty screening recommended for homes which have pets. At the beginning of every season I remove the heavy acrylic drop board that was original equipment and replace with these doors. They remain in place until I haul Legacy in October.

15. Custom Companion Doors (open).
 

16. Bimini. Made of the same Sunbrella like material that my sail drop was made of. Well constructed with stainless. This bimini was not made to fold. When we race I pull the pins supporting the cross bars on the right and left side, compress the frame and wrap a few bungy cords around it to hold it in place. If I did it again I would have one built which could fold.

17. Dodger. Non-folding. The center clear section unzips for more airflow. Clear plastic wing inserts are available for the left and right. Also well made with stainless tubing.

18. Harken 46ST Classic. Added port and starboard. Needed to handle the kevlar 155 genoa that we fly under 10K.

19. Garhauer Adjustable genoa Blocks.  Added this season.  They make a significant difference especially if you race.  Garhauer equipment is very well made. Heavy duty and long lasting.  Not as "sophisticated" as Harken but considerably less expensive. Great customer service.

20. Garhauer Mainsheet Block.  Added for additional purchase on the main sheet.  Simple, excellent addition.

21. Harken traveler Blocks.  Added for additional purchase on the traveler.  Simple, excellent addition.

22. Amsteel line with Block on Backstay.  Again, increased purchase.  Another simple, excellent addition.




 

23. New rub rail and Harken MK IV Furler, Expandable Whisker Pole, Pole Chocks.  Furler added this spring as a result of damaged forestay.  Decide to upgrade furler at same time that we were replacing forestay.  Excellent decision.  Much less windage, easier furling.

I added the rub rail about four years ago. It's a solid profile. Very hard. Comes with screw holes drilled about every 4 inches (100 mm) for easy placement and installation. Great addition. 

24.  Harken Mk IV (closeup).
