    Way too much. But those are some cool features. The internal ribs are a great idea on a 130+ cm pipegun. Not sure if the rail grooves do anything but it sounds cool too

    Dan that looks a lot like what my stepmom uses over on if her garden beds in the hottest part of the summer. If it is them I can tell you it holds up well to UV, she's used one for two years w no rotting or cracking, an it does a great job at stopping the heat, temp under it are about ten to fifteen degrees lower.


    My only thought is that the shade works because it is suspended above the garden, not draped over it like I envision the boat cover. I think that enough air should move through the tarp so the heat won't build up so I still don't see that as a problem.


    Also be sure nothing can get stuck under the cover, like plant material, as now that will be held in place and could do more damage/ discoloration than in the old setup.


    Seems like an elegant and simple solution to a big south Florida gripe. Please let us know how it works out

    Tono, the only thing that has deterred me in the past was the cost, what makes them different or better than a traditional, bare, pipegun like a rob Allen? Thanks

    welcome Boyko...glad to have you...lote of us, including myself like to shoot rear handled euro guns exclusivly over here, the mid handle is more about preference and really big guns in my experience.


    where in the Med did you do your diving?

    im calling it 200# but it might be bigger ,i only have a 50# scale the head spine and skin weighted almost 100#
    and it took took 2 people to carry the fish bag with only meat in it into the house.
    phil


    haha wow...that is a silly big fish Phil....bet you are mighty popular in the neighborhood right now ..:toast: for fish seems like a great deal

    welcome aboard..glad to have you...starting slow and always diving w a buddy is a great way to start.


    anytime you need one or two on your boat you can usually find some folks around here who would share expenses and pull an anchor for you.

    Thanks for the perspective Roberto. I hope everyone takes that away from the class. I knew too many fools in high school who would walk away from a bear death experience emboldened by what didn't kill them. Talk about missing the point.


    I loo forward to being a better diver after every time I step in the ocean. And I am not measuring anything by depth.



    I value your collective knowledge and opinions very much.

    See that scares me a little Hank. Because most buddies are not that on point and depending on a buddy is like asking to die.


    I don't know your son at all and this is merely a question, but is he a mature individual? Ate you concerned just because of the depth or because you feel he is pushing his limits?
