Ok so Burt wants to get rid of the old tarp cover and replace it with a real shelter, Ok , I say sounds like a great idea……………………..Until this monster shows up and the people who are to do this job are Burt , myself and our oldest Daughter [ she’s 23 ] . Now this shelter comes as a kit that weighs 400lbs , ok … thats a total got it. The boat is 40′ long not counting the bowsprit and it is 13′ high . Now the new canopy is only six’ by 40′, Hum ….. seems this will not work …… but nooooo burt has an idea … ding ding ding , thats when I know deep down I should bail ……. so burt adds 9′ by purchasing more poles and coming up with an extention to bring the grand total to approx. 19′ . Now this still seems ah not to bad … right ? Until the three of us commence raising the fourteen legs and locking them in to place . Now we did all of the prep work up too raising the legs and thought we have not had any food yet, so we trot off to a local diner and have food we normally do not eat . Greasy burgers , YEP ! We did. Now time to raise the canopy……………………………………………………………………………. Four hours later this all I have to say about it . %^*^%#%^&^^VEWEFUY^@#%()))(^$@!$())________________!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEP That bad . The end results are below enjoy
