Went to the boat on Saturday (6-Dec-2014) to check and make sure the tarp is ok. It’s been 3 weeks since we finished tarping the boat. Weather has seen temps in the single digits (Fahrenheit) and winds over 40 knots.
The tarp was in perfect shape and the frame is solid.

Also, removed the hand rails from the port side to start the project to replace them. During the end of the sailing season I accidentally stepped on the forward hand rail and cracked it.
I wasn’t sure how hard or easy it would be to remove them, but it was not an issue. I just had to remove 4 nuts on each hand rail and they came right off.
