If you remove the back stop you risk jamming your fingers between the top teak
trim and the hood. You also risk breaking the plexi cover if someone shoves it
back a little too aggressively. As “indigo” also said, the back stop may play
a role in diverting water into the limber holes and away fr
I don't know how similar the 37/40+ is to the 35mk3 but I am in process of
addressing similar leaks.
Taking off the hood was fairly straightforward - but did involve removing the
traveller track.
I also found that the aft end "stop" was loose - at one time - probably not

Hello all,
On our 37/40+, I think one of the leaks into the interior of the boat is coming
from the stop for the companionway hatch. There is a athwartship board that

blankets

When I first bought my boat, I found a leak in my aluminum tank.
Someone, not sure if this was original or replacement, had used a
galvanized steel strap under the tank, which over the years led to
galvanic corrosion right through the bottom of the tank. Now I have a
plastic tank.
