Thank you

Howdy and Welcome Aboard CF!
I see this is your first post.
Unfortunately I am not familiar with your boat and your description is unclear. I suggest you add some photos to show exactly what you mean.
Here are my tips on
posting photos. I hope this helps you.

Use Photos to Illustrate Your Posts
Photos also help to clarify, so post photos if you are asking about something like
gear on your boat or
parts or some problems.
You may at first have some difficulty
posting photos (it is common). There is a very good video on Youtube that clearly demonstrates how to post photos on CF. Here is a link to that video:

Also, you may upload a total of 12 photos per post. I often upload 12
images (as two sets of 6 uploaded for one post) when I am writing a profile about a boat.

Use Photos to Illustrate Requests for Help
For example, if you have a question about using some
hardware,
engine maintenance, or
parts of your boat, post a
photo or photos to illustrate your post. Don't assume every boat looks the same. Most boats have some variations in
deck hardware,
gear upgrades, owner modifications, different
engine models and installations, etc.
"Pictures tell a thousand words."
And they help bridge the gap in languages and understanding too.
