I think I have heard mention of several with dodgers.=C2=A0 If I cruised I =

Since we purchased Moose, we have sailed Narragansett Bay, Vineyard and Nan=
tucket Sounds. We have been very happy with this boat.
=20
=C2=A0
=20
The boat came with a dodger which has been removed. In all the Frers 33 pho=
tos, there is only one with a small dodger, =E2=80=9Caustral,=E2=80=9D hull=
51. It appears that the consensus is no dodger is better.
=20
=C2=A0
=20
I thought to restore the dodger as the consensus beyondfrers33.com=C2=A0is =
that dodgers enhance the sailing experience.
=20
=C2=A0
=20
We rarely sail with more than 4 people, and often 2.
=20
=C2=A0
=20
Does anyone have experience on their boat with and without the dodger, to a=
ny comments to offer on why none of the boats have dodgers now?
=20
=C2=A0

Thanks.
