Any good ideas on how to lower and raise the centerboard on the TI from the back seat, short of climbing over to do so... THanks |

I'm assuming by the lack of response here, how you're doing it is the best and/or only way to lower it. |

bosab, I get up to lower the center board but use my paddle to push it back up. I have thought about getting a small adjustable boat hook that could be used to raise and lower it & could be rigged to use as a whisker pole to hold the sail out when running downwind. |

Isn't this the reason some guys put their wife in the front seat? <ducks for cover> |
