Ours is plain and not as smart looking with the grey like yours. We are still in lockdown so can't even get into the marina. When we make our way to Erie, we'll drop off a bottle of wine for posting the video!
Glad it helped a little. I sure was hoping the border would be open this year too. Hopefully will get better as the season progresses

I did use sealant in every hole but thanks for the reminder. I am not sure if I had that in the video.

Re: C37 Sun pad and Dingy Davit
Hope all is well and that you are starting the season off well.
We are trying to evaluate our best davit option and in speaking with a few people, simply bolting it on the top or bottom of the planform will create a pressure problem that may lead to fracturing the gel coat. I was wondering if you have a dingy and if so do you tow it or do you have a davit?
Thanks for any advice you have.

We dont have a dingy, I would think you would be able to mount something off the swimplatform if it was not super heavy. I recall seeing a C37 with one on it if I can find it I will upload the pictures

Hope you are on the water enjoying the day!
We finally received our sun pad but we are perplexed as to how to afix the cup holder. Do you mind sharing how you dis that?
