Re: Tarp it, Build a Shed, or Shrink wrap it?
Well, I haven't updated this, and figured, why not post some photos...
I wanted to avoid the stress on the windshield .... and discovered an 8 foot piece of 2x3 rested on the cleats without touching the gunwales... so I build a single frame around from the stern of the boat, to just ahead of the windshield, Built this up enough to keep the windhield clear... with a centre beam from bow to stern. I was just gonna put some trusses in so the tarp wouldn't sag.... but I had some plywood, and waferboard, and decided to make a roof.. lol It wasn't pretty... but it's solid, and then threw the tarp on after to secure it.
i bought some bricks and put under the back of the trailer... with some 2x4's on top... then jacked the tongue upuntil everythign was suspended.... and lowered the tongue onto a 3rd brick. the wheels spin freely.
the back end is still open, I have about 10 feet of tarp overhanging, so I've been able to open it and let the carpet dry, I have a fan in it to circulate the air... hoping to get it all dry as a bone by next week, then just tie it down..
Anyway - attached some photos if anybody is curious.. I'm gonna rethink this for nxt year... the PVC pipes look interesting to try...
