On Saturday (8-November-2014) my brother and I went to the boat yard for the second day of the winterization process for “Thanks Dad”.
We installed the tarp over the new frame.
One “bone head” issue on my part. I bought 2 tarps, both 20′ x 20′. Should have been one tarp 20′ x 20′ (to cover the boat forward of the mast) and one 20′ x 30′ (to cover the boat aft of the mast). I knew what the sizes needed to be. I even had the dimensions on the drawing I made for the tarp. We had to run out and buy a third tarp 10′ x 10′ to finish the stern area.
We didn’t have enough bungee cords to double up on each one, so we will need to go back and add some later. I want to have 2 cords at each point in case one breaks during a particularly cold and windy day.
