Has anyone put a rear carrying handle on the rear deck of a pygmy double?
I will be using a "smart track" rudder, which stores in a vertical position (not on the deck). My other boats have a rear carrying handle (which I like).
I am thinking of making a reinforced place (several layers of glass) that I can screw on the SS pad eye (through bolts). I will be putting in a rear hatch so I should be able to reach back into the hull compartment to attach it. Does anyone have suggestions on how many layers and the size of the reinforcement should be? Or should I do something different?
Thanks
