I lived in Nanaimo, Bc when I was younger. Beautiful country. ( yes I've been everywhere from Canada to Mexico, California to Mass. and eveywhere inbetween) Your not far from there and there is no flat land and a million trees :)

Her name is Western Way -named for where she was kept most of her life off Northeast Harbor - Western Way passage in Maine. Hull # 83.

I will take a couple of pictures of the door and send them to you. My door is hinged lengthwise in the middle so it is out of the way while sailing. I have thought about replacing it some time with a dutch type door that is water tight. I have always worried about going off shore and getting the cockpit full with a wave. A dutch door that was water tight on the bottom would prevent a wave from flooding into the interior. I have made almost everything else water tight.
