Anyone else out there tether their tinny but don't want it all full of water each time you go to use it? Float switches lead to water logged foam, and I found my boat was too small for the float switch to ever really trip on - the flat bottom evenly distributes the water along the bottom & doesn't direct run-off to the stern.
I bought a boat cover that fits but water pools on top of it & seeps through into the boat eventually. First chance I get I'd like to get my boat tied off behind the house but right now that's not an option until I can support the boat cover in a simple way that prevents the pooling but also is easy to store. Right now I'm looking at the following:
from https://www.boatcovers.com/Boat_Cover_Support_System_boat_cover_accessory.html?products_id=4651 but I'm not confident there are enough straps to prevent the pooling issue.
If I go that route I'll have the cover snapped to the side of the boat and I'll try and maximize the tension on the supports to keep the fabric taught enough to avoid pools but I'm not 100% confident this will work.
