Just got around to dumping the photos from the camera to the 'puter, so there they are:

First, "The Prince, The Captain, The REAL Boss"

Here is "The Swabbie, The Maintenance-do-er, The spender of money" putting on the brand new lifelines (first time lifelines have seen this boat).

Here, of course, is "The Admiral, The Establisher of Spending Limits, The Boss when the mini-man isn't around" taking her turn at the tiller.

Keith,

Great pics! I have a 4 and 2 year old. Great idea for the crib!  I was planning on a v-berth "rubber room containment" system so they could roll around up there and poke their heads out the forward hatch...

New life lines?  I've got to know - did you add a pushpit as well?  If so, where'd you get it, how much $$?

Yes, I replaced the bent up bow-pulpit and added a stern rail (push-pit) as well.
I ordered it from Tops-in-quality from Michigan.
Even with truck-shipping, it was cheaper (by a LOT) than any of the fabricators around Annapolis.

The measurements I sent them were:
B0 = 53"
B2 = 65.5"
Crown = 6"
S1 = 64"
S2 = 27"
S3 = 42.5"
H1=9"
H2=19"

These are relative to their online order/sizing form.

Cool!  Can I ask how much $$?  Any issues at all with the installation?

PS.  Got any pictures of said pushpit??  You know how we all just love pictures!  :)

The pushpit was ~$550 for the part and ~$100 shipping to MD.

It can be seen in the background behind my lovely wife (the last picture).

Next time I get over there, I will see if I can snap a picture or two of the placement of the "feet" of the pushpit.

Thx for the info, that price sure seems nice, looking forward to the "pushpics". :D

Great pictures, too!
