I have the original table and L shaped mounting leg? The table is a beautiful 
piece of solid teak with teak built up sides. I think the mounting leg is a 
brilliant design. Because the leg pivots and is keyed in 4 positions and 
because the table swivels and is locked in place with a L shaped locking 
screw there several locations for the table. It can be positioned between the 
two sittees for diner for 4. Since Carole and I usually sail alone we pivot 
the leg to starboard and set the table tight to the back seat rest. It makes 
for intimate dinning for two and since it out of the way we leave it up all 
the time.

Last fall my power boat buddy was describing the cockpit table he made. Being 
tired of holding our dinners on our laps I told her I should try to make a 
table to mount in our cockpit. She suggested that instead of having an extra 
table to store I come up with a way to use our cabin table. We have a 6" Dia. 
Perko Inspection Plate in the forward end of the cockpit that unscrews to 
view the fuel tank gauge. I ordered an extra plate to which I mounted a 10 
1/2" tall cylinder similar to the receptacle for the table leg in the cabin. 
Now I can swap plates and set the table up in the cockpit. We haven't tried 
it yet this year but its the thing we are looking forward to most. I have a 
print if any one would like it. 

Sorry for being so wordy
