[QUOTE="bobberboy, post: 157088, member: 1417"] This is the reason guys like me should never be left alone with the PVC pipes at the Home Depot. I've made a career out of inventing crappy stuff out of crappy materials but this is the worst yet. I can't seem to come up with any good way to make a frame for my boat cover so it sheds water. Part of the problem is the cover fits like a gunny sack but there is also a lot of stuff sticking up like the seats and TM. I've tried just bending PVC, but without some rigid connection to the boat it sags under the weight and falls apart. I've tried wooden slats but again need a rigid connection to the boat. My last attempt on my 1236 worked really well but this one's a mess.
