[QUOTE="Scott1298, post: 326674, member: 8416"] What did you buy and how did you cut it down -- I want to do the same all around my boat! Do you have any specifics? I got mine at Canadian Tire (the Canadian Walmart) in the car organizer department for less than $15. It was originally 45x24" & I cut it down to 45x12", this one will stretch to 60". Just search cargo net, it looks like you can find others for longer truck boxes, maybe you can find one you can cut and fit between your seats... or you could try lashing two smaller ones together for length. Take a look at Maestro's nets @ https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=25479, he shrunk his nets right down and used hockey tape for the trim (although he called it something much more exotic). I used the seams at the ends of the seats for S hooks, and I added rope at the bottom inside the S hooks and just kept shortening the shock cord until I had satisfactory tension around the edges. Lastly I used a torch to melt the nylon netting ends left when I cut. Check my mod below for a little more detail and a few more pictures. [/QUOTE]
