Let's them put their boat in the garage or under the carport. http://www.fishmaster.com/?gclid=CNL...FRKLxwodqk78lw I gotta wonder how stable that this - there is virtually no cross bracing for side-to-side stability. Speaking of side-to-side stability, did I ever mention the swaying action I get with my bimini? Oh, I did? Well...never mind. It was determined that you should have purchased a surry top like Harry's. His was the finest kind available and didn't sway like yours. Yup. We remember. Was that the bimini that was hand built by the finest Union craftsmen using only expensive German hand tools and the highest grade materials known to man including the top material that was certified by NASA and was used to craft space suits installed by a crew of highly trained engineers using only high strength through fittings so that on the next fire boat welcome after some amazing adventure on Chesapeake Bay so that nobody would get wet while standing under it? Nowhere in here is there any mention of the stiffness of that famous 2" tubing. The way I heard it it wasn't two inch marine aluminum tubing - I heard it was 1 1/2" titanium/nickel alloy from only the finest, cleanest and well managed Union manned mines in the world and extruded in Germany using the best Swedish machinery to a tolerance of .00000000001 in wall thickness. Oh, I thought it was a reference to the stiffness of the 2" tubing that is getting all the use in the second honeymoon in Vero Beach. -- John H His landlord wouldn't touch that with a can of Lysol. |
