If you click on the picture after you bring it up it goes to a picture that can be magnified, making it easier to read. In the FORUM "A Few Cockpit Coaming Details" I took apart the pilot house aft port corner, and replaced all the bad wood. Now I have completed the same operation for the starboard side. It was worse - not that it was a problem once you get in the right head space. Find the rot, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble - the rot is gone - replace with premo wood, fasteners, and adhesives. Simplist plans I have ever followed. Glad I have a WIDE selection of tools.
Anyway I had to take the starboard side one level deeper, SO YOU GET A LEVEL LOWER IN THE STARBOARD TOP VIEW (under the deck), in case you are trying to relate the port and starboard top views. The port and starboard are generally the same. I think the 3/4 plywood inside back of pilot house is a bulkhead that connects the pilot house to the hull.

THE ROSTER
Muf, our Keeper of the Roster, has updated it. But he still needs information on boats out there that he doesn't have, like new owners, old owners, where any of the boats are. We don't post the roster on the web site, it is only sent to owners. Please send him anything you might have, or call him at:

Captain Clyde's Newporter sites:
and
The Ning site has been given a reprieve. I have transferred my Ning site to the blogspot site and will leave it there. I am keeping my Ning site open as a home for my photos and drawings.
Many of my photos there do not relate to Newporters, but a search through my collection may prove useful for your studies.
My drawings are not accurate in many respects as a result of the PAINT program used to draw them, There is no accurate scale and at best they are only useful to indicate some specific detail. Some are inaccurate because of my poor memory. Use them to help you think, not as a detailed presentation of the subject matter.
If any of you want to start a web site I suggest you remember what has happened to both my Ning site and this site (which is a Ning site) and remember that my Blogspot site is free and Blogspot's owner (Google) has promised to keep it that way.
Clyde's email:
Put 'Newporter' on Subject Line. Email is the best way to contact me. I do not regularly look at this site or its messaging system. Email will get to me post-haste.
