Excellent, guys! I was thinking of going this evening, but if you type
in zip code 62824 to a live weather feed you'll find out why I'm not
going to make it. We're right in the middle of getting a good raw
shelacing storm. Possible tornado warnings etc.


Best to increase the scope ratio on that concrete block ground tackle
of yours. :-)


Wes, Wayne. I think I might need to re-evaluate my anchorage , like.
drive stakes *and chain the pontoon to the ground!

If you were alot closer I'd drop off one of my spare danforths!


They sometimes show up at garage sales at very low prices. *I bought
one for the dinghy for something like $5, chain included.


Screw anchors work just fine for protecting it on land.

Now that you mention it, tom. In a way I agree. Screw anchors! where I
go a concrete block on nylon rope works just fine.
