[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 505491, member: 3438"] OK, started to look at some details for mine. I plan on using a 20' X 30' tarp which will cover over the motor to infront of the winch. The 20' will allow for a 7.5' height (from floor), and will have about 1' below the top of the deck on each side. The fencing is 30" high on mine. So above the fencing forms a 60" height by 50" width. So greater than a 45 deree angle, but will have to reiew trig to figure that out. PVC has gone up considerablly since the last time I purchased! :( Was thinking of using for main beam and verticle supports. The verticle supports maybe 2x4s now. Still working on that. Supports will need a base to prevent perminent compresing the cushioned vinyl floor. Probably some scrap 1/2 ext plywood I have laying around. For the latteral supports, do not want to fasten to the fencing and put stress on that. I have three heavy duty ratchet straps. They have 2" wide webing X 23' length. My thought is to loop around the main beam. There would be one on each end where there is open deck. Toward the middle, I can place the third one. With the two side by side captains chairs, I can run the webing under the fencing there. [/QUOTE]
