Modifications for River Trip

[Ron Jesche CH21' Sealion']

I'm getting Sealion ready for a 10 day trip on the Murray river next week. We will be leaving the mast at home and I have added a bimini for the trip. It will give us shelter over the cockpit and let us keep the hatch open even in some rain. Something I have been trying to fit are some hanging net bags. These didn't work out great and now have hung rope bags, usually used in the cockpit for halyards or sheet ropes. They are bit more expensive but well made and give us great lightweight storage. I am also fitting a Eberspacher diesel heater. As we are anbe to use the boat year round here, it should keep us toasty warm. I'll report on the trip on our return
