I have started to build a hard dodger for the trip to Europe. During the cruise in the Pacific when it rained very hard the canvas dodger leaked and the water came down the companionway into the saloon. I made a template of the existing dodger and then set about creating the plug in wood. After a few design changes I finally got it right. The next stage is creating a female mould from the plug. I then build the final fiberglass dodger and put in the windows.
