I generally just wore a wide brimmed hat. I don't recall ever seeing a 24 with a dodger let alone a full bimini. I would guess you'll need at least a slot for the mainsheet, are you wanting to be able to see the sail as well so you can trim it? Cheers, Paul.

I wonder whether anyone has any design ideas for a bimini that could cover the full cockpit while under sail. The issue is that the mainsheet lands on a shackle in the middle of the cockpit. A helmsman's bimini is possible but this is not enough for the boss. We are thinking about a slot, double zippers or low slung straps so that the sheet and boom can pass across the cockpit. A California-tyle dodger and bimini combination would turn into a sweat lodge here in Florida. I have started searching the archives but have not found anything yet. Does anyone recall discussion of this in previous emails or have some experience with the dilemma? It would be great to connect with other C&C 24 owners. Thanks.
