Bob,
I just picked up a new dodger on Friday. In my mind I had thought that the forward edge would be held tight by some sort of structure attached to the frame and the hatch would slide freely underneath. However it came with just a row of grommets in the front for turning buttons that are to be installed on the forward edge of my hatch. The second row of snaps sounds like a good idea.

There is a zipper on each side that runs to the top of the dodger. This allows the dodger "windshield" to be rolled up and snapped at the top. It also conveniently allows me a place to run my traveler control lines. The center car mainsheet, however, has no place to go so I don't usually snap the windshield down. Bob Mann -------------- Original message -------------- From: "Paul Tschirhart" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hey List, I have a question for those of you who have a doger installed on your boats. How is the sliding hatch accommodated? Where or how is the forward edge of the dodge mounted to the deck? My boat is a 76'. Thanks, Paul C27 "some day" Lake Erie, Ontario
