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.
