it works really well, actually. it's basically a board that rides from coaming to coaming at the aft cleats. it has wooden brackets that fit over the coaming, buffered by carpet, and two brackets on the top where the mast and boom sit. it also has the trailer lights and license plate mounted to it, which helps keep the lights out of saltwater while launching. there's a rope that fits through a hole on the top and a wooden cleat. the rope is used to tie the rig down. the gallows is tied to each of the rear cleats. seems like it was a factory set-up, although i haven't seen any other DS IIs with that set-up. i don't have a digital camera but i could shoot photos and mail them to you with the specs.
