I'm sure I saw a while back that someone had removed the mast support and replaced it with a frame that came around the sides of the cabin. Anyway, I can't...
When you say the mast support ,do you mean the one at the stern when its in the down position? or the mast base support when up?If its the latter then There...
My mod works perfect.Main reason I can raise & lower the mast one handed very easily.If you look at all2code 5th Feb post you will see a picture of the mast...
Doug, We may have crossed wires here. I was referring to the post inside the cabin that the table fixes to. It goes under the mast support to the top of the...
Yeh I see what you mean.Good luck ,I've never seen any thing posted on that subject,But it seems a good idea ,Practical Too.lilredboatca ... From: Julian &...
I believe you are referring to the stanchion. I would expect that modifying or removing this would not be wise as there is a tremendous amount of stress at...
Anyway it keeps my Girl friend on her side of the boat. I say keep it. I need it and the mast needs it. Tim [Non-text portions of this message have been...

Good Idea... I am located in scenic Trenton NJ, if anyone has a Siren locally I would love to peak my nose in and see it. I know she is small, but as long as...
Hi all, I took Athena on her first sail for 2003 today, this being the first chance all year that I have had to get her down to Long Beach Harbor. The day was...
Deryk, I keep Athena in my attached garage, so I just went down and sat in her. I am 5'8 1/2, if I sit up straight on a berth cushion my head just hits the...
Thanks Bernard, it gives me an idea. I looked at a venture 21 with the tinyest cabin. A little slouch is fine for me, but cooking while laying down isnt lol....
Greeting Fellow Siren Owners, I currently live in Ohio and plan to move to Florida this spring/summer. I'm going to cash in all my chips, and exactly what I...
... There is a Siren owner! Yes it would be rough. I think that the biggest problem liveing aboard is owning too much stuff. You would have a vehicle to store...
Well ok, this is my speculations... You could probably find a place to store most of your stuff fairly inexpensively in one of those storage places. I moved...
Hi Jeff. I have travelled across Canada Twice with my Siren. In 2001 I left Halifax and headed West, and returned in 2002. I took an average of of 8 weeks both...

I sure have. I put a 50 or 60 pound bag of sand on each side of the trunk and I'm really glad I did. Although it slowed me down somewhat I was glad for the...
Well it's time to "unlurk". I'm not sure about all that extra weight in the boat. That's got to slow the boat quite a bit, and it's not a fast boat in the...
I would like to know what others have done to increase the ventilation in the cabin. After reading about using it as an overnight place to sleep on the road I...
YoYo seems to be one of the few Sirens with a built in opening front window. This provides pretty adequate ventilation while I'm on her, but it can not be left...
I have built a cherry and plexiglass skylight just fore the mast it works great. You can look out it when sleeping and use it to stuff sails down when you are...
