    Left side of the Carry Thru and my wide hips. Plenty of room. Doggy bag is for Spike no doubt; thus, you now know I'm sitting in Dennis Brooks' very nice UltraCruiser. Trim knob and cable on the left. At the top, the tubing is the control tube heading back to the rudder from the rudder bar.

    I cut the template directly from the plans ... no tracing nonsense. The organge triangle ensures the spar is square to the center line. Also, the back edge of the cut-out is 14-inches from the bulkhead. Rudder push-rod on the left has not been bent. Taken from S. S. Adkins UltraCruiser.
