    HAHAHA! 15 minute video could have been 2 minutes, but then I'd miss out on the old-man groaning and folksy wisdom. Loved it! Exactly what I was looking for on my boat too!

    Cool Idea. I was looking for a shade idea for my canoe and this gave me some good direction.

      I use a 58" "canopy" umbrella from Walmart (5$ on clearance) that I attached to the back of my seat using PVC and a couple of "U" shaped aluminum pipe holders (1.50$/4) to secure the PVC. No hassle of folding or tying anything down. When closed you can either stow the umbrella or simply leave in it's holder. Also you don't have to fish around the tie downs as the fish does it's best to escape.

    Great video. Great idea and great presentation. I was looking at custom shades for my 32' Center Console which cost close to $2,000. I started to think of ways to make my own which included braking out my wife's sewing machine etc etc etc. Then I came across your video. Perfect. I look forward to making it in time for the weekend. Thank you for your video and l liked your humorous approach to it. Cheers....

      Sold that boat but the current owner tells me he absolutely loves it and uses it all the time. To be clear though he does not use it underway and only when anchored.

    Wind will stretch bungy cords, making top flimsy. Use pipes instead of bungy cords.

    How much did you pay for the boat? I want that exact boat but man they run 30k atm

    • @downstateradv
      @downstateradv  3 роки тому

      I actually sold that boat. Got $15 before the market went crazy. Now they're going for 20-25 somehow. That's a 2011. Insane.

      Never really did to be honest. It's fairly stout but anything more than a high idle would probably be a bit much. We used it mostly at the sand bar and when relaxing.
