Looks terrific and very nice workmanship! I have been thinking of doing the same, my only hesitation has been where to store the darn thing when not in use. How'd you solve it?

Hi Jim

That has been my dilemma as well. The screen itself is flemsy and needs to be protected...I have been toying with the idea of mounting it on the cabin top just forward of the companionway trim. But in light of the fact that I take months if not years to drill or epoxy thing to the boat I have not done so yet. I am still looking! If you come up with an idea please let me know.

Thanks for the comments on workmanship, but if you didnt see my earlier post on this subject. I cut, sanded, and stained, but I went to a local cabinet shop to have the joints done. The charged me $10 or $20, I dont recall which.... I would also radius the outside edge of the boards with a router (I have yet to do so).
