In Response To: Cockpit recess... anyone here use it? (Allen M.)

I have the same question... Saw the description and would like to know who else has done it?
: I've finished stripping the deck and read in Nick's book about the cockpit
: recess and how it may help during the coaming installation. I don't have
: any plans for the recess, so I don't know how it should go, but I think I
: should make the cutout so the recess is as flat as possible. Right? I have
: quite a bit of curvature at the front part of the cockpit area so the
: recess may angle up quite a bit. Will this be o.k.? Any of your
: experiences will be helpful.
