Has anyone fitted a liferaft canister to the coachroof of a 32? If anyone has, what fixings did you use and how did you go about it?

I've seen one with the standard S/steel fitting bolted on to the panel above the hatch garage.
A bit ugly and it reduced the visibility.
Suspect you would have to be very careful if yuo had a lot of mainsheet out and gybed; big chance of rope going under the frame anf LIFTOFF!

Agree with both the above, the latter possibly to the extent of being dangerous ...
