What sort of swivel arrangement do you use, John?  Is this kind of
hardware available in boating supply houses?  Looks like a really
good idea.

I use the Jack Holt trapeze handles (HA 60) available at most dinghy supply
shops.
very light and fit the hands nicely. Ronstan also makes a similar handle as
does Sea Sure.

West marine sells (sold?) a Ronstan clone on page 842 of 1998 master
catalogue. Item # 188724. The blue color may turn you off. ;-). The RWO
handle won't work as it won't swivel.

Cheers,
