Recently got to the boat after some months of absence and find cover semi shredded - no surprise there as it had been made inside out and with tags instead of cringles but what a surprise was that 3 stanchions on the port side were bent and one base had a bent and severed stud - all 12 mm of it. Someone will understand what the loading must have been to do that. fortunately no other damage but the consequence was that rain water had a way to get inside - not enough to do harm as my bilges are deep
