Dana,
No apologies necessary. Thank you for the listing of blogs. I have read yours and some of the others and thoroughly enjoyed them. I also like the step/seat plans and will keep a note of them until I start building in 2016. My son and I are planing on attending the CLC open house next weekend and will finally be able to see a Pocket Ship in person after I have been reading about it for the last 6-8 months. I look forward to reading your blog about the step.

Thanks
Ron

Thanks for the additional pictures Dana, it had been a while since I saw it.

I am going to incorporate a couple of cup holders in my design : )

The drawing of the companionway stool has been updated with the correct dimensions now that I have finished building it. However, the lengths of the legs will vary depending on the exact angle you set them at. I would say to cut them a little long, then trim them so the seat just touches the companionway edge. I also plan to put rubber pads on each foot and on the bottom of the seat where it touches the companionway.
