Nautical object



What is the name of this nautical object? Where does it get positioned on the boat hull? Orientation star upwards? Terese got this for me last year when she teaching for the SLS in Lamu, Kenya. I want to attach correctly to Aeolus.

AEOLUS - double ended skiff


AEOLUS is a double ended rowing and sailing skiff that my son Frank and I finished in 2009. This photo is taken at the inaugural launch from Preston's dock in Greenport NY. Aeolus is a lapstrake hull of stitch and glue construction from a kit supplied by Chesapeake Light Craft. She is 15 feet long and weighs only 95 lbs. Note her cotton lanteen sail from Lamu, Kenya.
