would this scare you, having your arch held up in the air by 3 5/16" u-bolts? the clear coat was not dry so the straps around the legs are just there for safety.

yes

Not at all. Be surprised at how much strenght bolts have. Looks are decieving.
How many engines have you seen pulled using a plate bolted to the intake carb mount using the 4) 1/4" bolts? Let alone the aluminum intakes. :)

Did you go for a ride in the boat. The one that I went in wobbled like crazy. I thought that I needed a hard hat to sit on the bridge. How did you like the awesome build quality??

Bluewater's ROCK! H. Ross Perot owned one.

That boat needs some Claymates! :D

I built that arch and awning from scratch. I hauled it to the boat running 80 mph down the highway and it did fine.

here are some pics of what I had to start with.

The boat down here has a factory hard top. We were in 2-3 footers and it was rocking all over the place. I thought that that one looked different from factory. They seem to like to go light on the layup building those boats.
