As we are very close to being Grandparents, I have to fit some sort of baby seat in the boat.
When I was a young father, we had a Corribee, so it wasnt far to fall from anywhere down below, and the cockpit sole worked well ass aplaypen.
However, Full Circle is a lot bigger and more prone to damaging tiny humans.
Anyone mounted a baby car seat , and what were the issues? What is the best orientation, or did you have separate fixings for each tack?
Your experiences are welcome!


Thanks

Congratulations, I can highly recomend that condition.
We had our grandchildren's seat fixed to a bulkhead, facing aft. We found that they like to be able to see what's happening.
The seat wedged in between the table and bunk side so didn't need holes drilling.
Unfortunately they don't want to stay in the seat for long and it's when they become clamberers that the fun starts.
We've just emptied the boat for winter storage. Took off 2 car loads of our stuff and 1 car load of Barbies, books, buckets & spades etc. etc.
Have you started looking for an Optimist yet?
