    Looks like that load will vibrate a lot. Is there edge protection under those straps?
    Mentioned earlier. The straps should hang at 90 degrees from the load. They will slide down the arch if not.

    Check often. Good luck.

    I would run a strap fore and aft and knot it at each crossing strap to hold them all in place

    I asked what it is. They said they make tanks with it.

    If its attached to that cradle I would chain that down in all direction.

    Put long timbers under each end. Then add straps as a secondary securement to basically stop it from flapping around.

    Throw straps over rear were that post/attachment is and pull the back down hard. Then strap the front.

    Maybe add a choker or two.
