DHD - you are meant to be cooing over the dog not asking questions about the weird contraption at the rear

I'ts now been removed - but the previous owner used it as a seat/table over the fuel tank -it could be removed - laid over the main jockey console and one could then eat cucumber sandwiches from it - no seriously that's what it was designed for - especially during Cowes week - strange but oh so very true - as we never eat anything as grand as cucumber we've taken it out altogether

What a great RIB sized dog.
When ours comes up for replacement (sadly) I think we will go for a compact version. Unfortunately ours at 6 stone and very long legs, does not find it easy and any chop.

Looks a little like yours, but on steroids! Bring on the jokes .... We have a poodle!

But it is the proper sized one, 6ft tall on her back legs. Too gangely to cope with extreme movement, even when "jammed" between jockey seats.

Awwww !

Let's have more of the 'Pic's of 4 legged crew members' thread! I don't have anything to add to it yet but I have friends with a mostly-German-shepherd who may or may not get on well with the SR4, he's quite a lump so could be interesting ....

Our beasts love being in the boat. When the tan Husky was young, and I would be working on the boat in the garage over the winter, he would sit and howl at me until I hauled up into the boat with me...
