Nice Jerry, Im getting one of those dude.
Shade in the summer and it'll keep the rain and snow off in the winter. Looking good Ski trip
i like it other than it looks like the tie-downs would be in the way when you were storing rods to move. i have a regular unbrella in the same kind of bracket you have. it's an 8 ft brella and covers me good.
I need to get me one of those. I wonder if my wife would mind setting in the sun?

Also, will have hooks on both ends of the cord so it won't be much trouble to simply reach up and unhook it from the brella, fold the brella up, store rods and move. You're right though, they'll be a little trouble but I figure that's the price I'll have to pay for shade!

Those flaps fold up and hook on top of the brella and I prolly won't even use them unless there's enough wind that I need to tie the brella down. If there's that much wind though, I'm not sure I wan't to put up an 8 foot sail!
ski, all you need to hold the brella down is a bungee strap hooked on the pole and down to the pvc bracket. wind won't lift it out of the boat then. at least that's the way i fixed mine.

I heard they ain't on sale for 29 bucks anymore. Any one know?
