Default How to support a cat

On a trailer, they all seem to be supported by the tunnel...
what about when they are built on the shop floor? Are they supported by tunnel? Or by sponsons?
Is there any good reason not to support on sponsons ?

How are they supported when displayed during boat shows when they are not on trailer?

Cats are easy to support




Small newly designed Cats , not so much.





Too many support points required.

My Skater is supported by the inside rails of the sponsons with backup support in the tunnel.

Like Cash Bar's, supported on the spray rails with two "centering hoops".
