]After struggling for months to keep my boat covered in such a way as to shed water and not have pockets of water collect in the cover, I made some bows out of tent replacement poles that I picked up years ago on clearance at Academy. The hard part was coming up with some way to attach the bows to the boat rails. Rail connector contraptions that I pieced together are perfect diameter to snap in place over the rails. Probably wouldn't support a bunch of snow with just four bows but fortunately we don't have to worry about that here in Southeast Texas. Sorry, forgot to take a pic with the cover over the bows. Take my word for it, they work perfectly.[attachment=0]railconnector2.jpg[/attachment
