    Bungees n tarps are called out specifically as excluded from this, so im not sure that quite works.

    Moreover, assume the top chain was simply looped at the top and tightened, nothing attached to the deck, that would simply count as unitizing the load, making 3 coils into 1 coil, those are the postulations im using since i didnt see it in person, that said, if desiring, you can simply add the 4700 to the wll to the total (its tied in right and left, forward and back, but is a single chain coming off the load) that gives 35000 wll, yet again making 70k for total securement requirements, those 3 coils dont quite look 23k+ ea to me, so still good

    Not hall of shame material, I sincerely hope it works for him!!! That would be great if they show the aftermath with his roof still intact!!! Great advertising for US Cargo control too....
