Can anyone suggest or point me at drawings/photos/plans etc. for a platform at the bow for all the things that occur at the pointy end.
A mixture of Arthritis, age and ambition makes me want to continue doing all the things I used to take for granted.
Boat Sigma 362 with Selden furler.
I want to accomodate bowsprit for Cruising Chute, anchor storage and launch / retrieval ( atm I use 2 anchors Delta for supervised stops and 20kg Spade for unsupervised/ sleep stops, swop them around as necessary, 2 large mooring ropes and furler.
All this is singlehanded but can see the time when I won’t be capable.
Thanks
Keith
 
You can buy such things ready made from www.batsystem.se as they are very common in Scandinavia where boarding from the bow is common. even if not exactly what you want or they don't do a suitable model you might get some ideas. Look under bowsprits for pictures of their range.
