After last winter we decided that we would heat shrink the boat this winter. By doing this we could leave all but the head sail on, and we would have some usable deck space. We also wouldn't have to bring everything below thus giving us our living space back below decks. We also hope that it will help us with our heating bills this winter, the down side is we have never done this before. However, Mark got after it and it has turned out pretty good for a first attempt. We have learned some things and will do some things different if we ever do it again. We are reasonably happy and below are some pics. We have only installed two doors you can see one on the starboard side. We have to put three more in, one on the bow, one by the propane tank and one on top near the chimney for knocking off excess snow and servicing the chimney.
