Hey Chris,
Great Vids! I watched a couple of them twice.

For a winter cover I use a double tarp, no cockpit cover. I use nylon line and a few 2X4s to build a frame 2-3' above the deck and through the tarps over. Lots of air can blow through and most of the snow slides off.

thanks...
does that frame rest on the ground or on the boat?
i'd like to store w/o cockpit cover but fear the water.
is the line to make "ribs" for the frame?

High Chris,
The frame is nothing more than (3) T type supports with towels ductaped on, a few lines, and 2 tarps.
I like to leave it so there's plenty of air flow.
Every now and then during the Winter my 6 year old and I climb in to hide from mom...:evilb:

ChristianGott 11-15-2009 03:58 PM

i gotta make me one of those....for the hiding!
she always checks the barn first...i'm running out of places...

anyone know tha actual rum runner measurements?
I think I am gonna buy a nice new cover since the prices have gone down.

Its too cold to go out and measure when I am sure soneone on here knows the sizing

ChristianGott 11-20-2009 06:45 PM

anyone who tries to tell you his is bigger than yours...(you can finish that thought...)...go measure your own, because you ain't gonna measure mine!!:kiss:

btw...cold makes it smaller..

30ctsutphen 11-20-2009 08:45 PM

christian I think were talking about different things. Although it is true in both cases MINE is bigger than yours. LOL


I thought I boats had the exact dimensions at one time but I cant find it anywhere

no, i'm pretty sure mine's longer....but just in case....data!

thanks chris, I appreciate the sizing (of the boat that is)


Its funny the option list doesnt show many of the upgraded items my boat has on it I wonder if they were added later or if that an earlier leaflet.
and can that O/B weight be after the outboards were hung?

Seems oftly light weight doesnt it?
maybe thats why my boat likes to fly so easy.
