[QUOTE="richg99, post: 407231, member: 4376"] The PVC is softer than the aluminum. So, barring something getting between the PVC and the bottom of the hull, there shouldn't be any extra wear and tear on the hull itself. The bunk's carpeting had a larger possibility of stones or grit getting stuck in between the bunk and the hull. What I don't know is, how long the PVC material will hold up. My past experiments have outlasted me, but that material was thicker than the material that makes up these gutter downspouts. I am considering going back and adding additional screws with washers. I should be able to do that even with the boat on the trailer. richg99 [/QUOTE]
