I want a dodger on my PD. Does anyone have the specs and maybe pictures of any kind of dodger fabriacted? I received a quote for $2500, starting from scratch, which is a great price in this market. BUT, If I have any thing like a template, drawings, sizes, deminsions, Etc... It will reduce my cost. One day, I will assist you...

Sailrite.com has complete kits for about $600.00, they also have a how-to on CD Rom for $20.00. You should be able to do all of the pre work and take it to a shop in your area to be sewn for a "few" hundred dollars
Their catalog has some great ideas, send for it or order on line

Have you considered a bimini with windows that zip onto the front and to form a dodger. I have thought long and hard and feel that being able to climb up on the cabin top to reef the main is a huge advantage on the safety front.

You could of course install a fairly high dodger and be able to do the same thing. It just wouldn't look as cool. I do think a dodger would improve the overall profile of the boat.

Check out this site, tons of pictures.
