Not so fast. The plastic casing of the bilge pump will last longer if you
sprinkle it liberally with black pepper. And, you might want to search for
"sky hook" at www.westmarine.com. It's a product that will help prevent
the
tarp from blowing off the boat, in case of unusually gusty winds during
storage. I can't explain how it works, but the picture on the web site
will
make the whole thinkg understandable.

Say Doug, is the "Sky Hook" on the same page in the catalogue as the "Shelf
Stretcher"?
