Pontoon Boat & Deck Boat Forum

Morning guys/gals,

If we get much more rain here in KC, we're not going to need to take the boat anywhere, it'll just float off the trailer. Anyway, quick question....we had to get up and go check on her at the storage place after 2.5" more last night. Overall no huge dips in the cover where water was collecting except for the starboard stern corner. I think I read on here, there are a few known spots where water sometimes will pool, but does anyone have any quick design tips for creating another adjustable pole or something similar?

Get some inflatable beach balls in assorted sizes... Could wedge them between the cover and the boat as needed... PVC pipe with capped off tee fittings on the end... If you want adjustable buy 1.0" and 1.25" pipe as the 1.0" will fit inside the 1.25" or 1.5" and 2.0" you can then cross drill the inner pipe with holes every inch for a bolt to adjust the length....

Raise the trailer tongue jack to where it's nose high. Water will naturally drain off the back end better. It really doesn't hurt boats to get wet.
