Close to the bow centerbord is a deck hatch. So they try to interfere with each other.
In calm weather no worry, but when the seas are breaking the deck hatches have to be tightend down well.
The Exlex I sailed 2020 and 2021 had hatches I had done a bad job on. Each corner had a screw down fitting that did not work very well and was not very reliable.
Next boat I said I will do it better. This night I found the solution. In one of the previus comments it was suggested that I put a bar across and screw down the hatch to the bar.
A good idea becouse it was only one operation, but it would take to much place.
Thinking more about the central strongpoint I got the idea of using a ratchet strap to the bottom of the boat.
This morning I tested it.
It was a succes.
Bonus: Last night the internet was down so no video I could make but Petter lives next door. I went there and he fixed it despite that Apple tried to sabotage me using Youtube.
Also he had a stravberry field and let me pick the well tasting berries.

Sven Yrvind

Hi My name is Sven Yrvind. I design, build and cruise small boats. 1962 I left Sweden in 15 feet converted Blekingseka. I soon found out that there was room for improvement. To understand the basic I began to study mathematics and engenering. 1968 I sailed to England via many contries in a converted 13 feet rowing boat. People told me I be more happy on a bigger boat. November that year I found a wreck an old steam launch build 1885 I converted her to a staysail schooner and sailed her to Rio de Janeiro. That voyage advised me that a bigger boat do not bring happiness, happiness is an inside thing. I designed a 6 meter doubble ender built her in my mother basement. Tried to sail around Cape Horn with her but was capsized and pitchpoled. Later I built an 5.9 meter boat in her I rounded Cape Horn in the southern winter June 1980. I have continued to design, build, and cruise small boats often in high latitudes. Please support me on my donation button on my site yrvind.com
