mission accomplished
Thanks Rob,
and it begins! I'm realizing that I need to carve out a protected place in my very wooded yard to winter the boat. I'm spending this weekend cutting down 6 trees and a contractor is coming in to cut and stone a 200 ft lane; at the end of that lane I'll put this garage tent http://www.coverquest.com/covers/ins...s/coverit2.php I should be able to squeeze in my camper, utility trailer, and even my John Deere tractor. I know the boat is supposed to be about fun, but the urge to protect an investment is primal. I probably should've done all this before buying the boat, but I thought I'd still be looking at this point. Scout "Capt. Rob" wrote in message ups.com... Congrats, Scout! Do send us some pics when you can. RB 35s5 NY |

Green or Gray...that is the question. Joe Joe - I'm a fan of the gray! Katy - I chose the round top because I've had them before - 11 years and many high winds and heavy snows later it was still as taught and sturdy as day one. They're a good product provided they are installed correctly. The anchors (screws) were a bear to twist in, but well worth the effort. The dupont material is very tough! Scout |
