i need almost 40kgs of lead (basically a small child) in my boat...

having baby bars means that if i weight them( once i have some) i can count that as some of my lead

Because they're after a ladder, not a nice comfy seat. Of course, the seat is a better idea, but that's neither here nor there. Anyway, look at something like a 4000- it has half-tramps for the helm, but leaves the space clear for the crew to nimbly leap out over.

Ring your local metal stockist and give them the tube size of your normal bars and the length inside the racks, they are made of the same material. then ring Laser and buy the brackets to fix then to the normal racks. (Last I heard they still had the brackets)

i know there is also the option of eating pies


Oh get you now! I thought you wanted them for a baby to trapeze off of, and I was wondering who's baby!


somehow i dont see a baby trimming the spinnaker on the 5k

and Spolsh

yes i sail on a lake but i will also be sailing on the sea loads this year,

and will still need the baby bars on the racks wherever i sail
