Quonset Hut

Postby monstermau » Sat Jan 22, 2011 12:57 pm

I didn't seem to get any feedback on this. That guy that had the one on his boat it was really neat. The canvas snapped on to the sides of the front of his CC. One could get under it in bad weather. Anyone know who would make something like this??? :D

Do you mean a bow dodger? Any canvas shop should be able to make you one. A Quonsett hut is a huge half tube structure invented in Quonsett RI at the Sea Bee base. They used them as warehouses, barracks (remember Gomer Pyle), and open bay maintenance areas.

a dodger would be kinda cool but they are hard to see over when you're driving.
