Vic Maui dodgers and other marine canvas

Given that this is a marine canvas blog we feel it's appropriate to discuss the canvas of the Vic Maui boats.

 Straight Express jumps out as having the most luxurious (for a racing boat) dodger and bimini. For a long race like Vic Maui with cold/hot extremes it would really make a difference in comfort level to have a set up like this.




Red Sheilla has a nice smaller dodger, that would help as well especially in the weather that confronted the boats  in the first few days of the race. We love the color too!






Sonsie also opted for a smaller racier dodger with what looks like a hard top, plus a foldable bimini for the tropical part of the journey.






The super star of the race Terremoto! has a neat hard racing dodger.








Terremoto! also has abundant organizational bags and soft lockers. With the chaos that a racing in rough weather can bring, this is a great idea.
