    Not sure how the weather is north of the border. But down here,.. they are not paying enough to get me to tarp a load like that in this heat.

    Mad respect brother,.. lots and lots or mad respect.

    Lack of respect mostly,.. but your close.

    Next response I should be able to rest my case and no need to respond. ;)

    Barges.

    The bottom is actually a boat,.. it will have 2 250hp outboard motors on the back of it,.. it has a roof canopy and steering wheel that were removed so the top barge could be loaded on top. The pallets and assorted pieces were strategically placed around the load. I almost ran out of straps for this load.

    I've never had this problem here. I must be doing something wrong I guess.

    I know that there's been things said in the past that have pissed us/each other off. I'd really like to see those things (the past) left there, and move on from them. If that isn't possible, then I think using the ignore function is probably what needs to be done.

    Thank you. Trust me it was a PITA.

    Two more bunggies added after the final pic just at the saggy looking corners at the front of the lead and there was no billowing whatsoever. I decided if I was going to waste so much time on this thing I might as well try to make it look decent and I think it turned out OK. Here in the GTA now, it survived the 7 hour ride just fine.

    Kind of hard to do with that block in the way. I don't get how a cheater chain would help when you put the block in the wrong spot.

    Once I moved the block, a hook fit thru no problem.
