*************************************************************
THIS IS HOW I GOT IT TO THE BOAT.
   
Red flags kept cars away on the ride to the boat yard! Nov. 12th, 2005
 
Supported on temporary wood frame.

Mocked up some bars out of PVC to show the welder.
Dec 3rd 2005

Welder finished corner bars. All fit nicely.
THIS IS HOW I LAID OUT THE ANGLE SUPPORT BARS

Green lines show what I vision for side movement supports for the front bars.
The rear bars will only have the lower 45 deg angle.
Dec 17th 2005

Welder made the starboard side with tack welds only. I am to try it out on the boat before he welds it up.
BUT, I am sick and it will have to wait. :(
The bar in the background is the port side with the PVC pipe attached.
The closest bar is the starboard that he made from the starboard template.
