Haveje II

IMPROVEMENT - COMFORT

One of the few annoying things about GD28 are the sitting conditions in the cockpit. Its fakirlike. If you don’t have a bad back, you get it! Here Utzon has taken more aesthetic considerations than comfort?!

To improve this I have constructed a simple back-support for the helmsman.

All it needs is

- 4 peaces of stainless steel bend on the middle (ca. 45 degrees) and

- two pieces of teak 10-12 cm x 25-30 cm. (see photos)

I know some of you fundamentalists believe this is blasphemy to an original product, but it has improved my happiness with sailing.
