New Boat Shelter

My son and grandson helped erect a new cover (tent) on the existing frame for the DuNORD's home storage shelter. The original fabric lasted 3 years (guaranteed for 2) before developing lengthwise rips from end to end near the top. The new fabric is guaranteed for 10 years, which should be enough for us.r

Looks great!

It looks like you have a lumber shelf or ladder rack on the starboard side of the tent wall. What's that for?

I noticed in the 2nd picture you have 3 supports for your wheelhouse canvas. The boat comes with one. (DA was gracious enough to donate his to me since he has a hard top - Thanks again!) Did you add the other two? If so, any hint as to where to get them?

Nick, is that SSB antenna? If yes, what did you do for grounding and how happy are you with it? Thanks.

The Red Oak arch dimensions were not clear in the foregoing. They measure 1/4" x 1-3/4" x 6' (approx, whatever yields a bit of arch when seated in the sockets).

It's simply a West Marine antenna for a West Marine VHF radio, honza.
