Nice. I can't tell how the bungies are attached. Do they have hooks, or are they loops? Do you carry spare shafts? Maybe include a piece of 1-1/2" PVC pipe for everyone to put their spare shafts in?

Such a clean installation! The way you integraged the end of the gun rack and corner bracket is perfect. What are the white heads for the fasteners? some kind of cap?

thanks hau for that amazing deal!! I really appreciate it!

Anyone have a RA 120 that they dont use or trying to get rid of?? I'm willing to buy it!

You people suck!!!!! I've tried for years to figure it out with no luck.

I don't have any stainless, but I have some 1.5" square (1/8" wall) and 1.25" square (3/32" wall) aluminum that you could have if you can't find anything locally. The 1.5" tube has square corners, and the 1.25" tube has rounded corners.

I have bought small pieces like that from both www.speedymetals.com, and www.metalsdepot.com. It looks like it will run you about $22 plus shipping from either. I would get the ones with rouned corners, if it were me.

Right. I was thinking of the style of clamp shown below. The the piece of metal beneath the nuts really helps it grip a round tube much better than the u-bolt alone. Then cut off the ends of the u-bolt to be just the right length and use an acorn nut so the protruding threads won't snag wetsuits, etc.

Quote from Dan

For the top I need a bar welded onto the aluminum frame. Bungees will be attached to that.

Be aware that welding to the frame will destroy the shiny anodizing at the weld. The weld, and the tubing near it, will just be dull gray.

What do you think about using a plastic or aluminum piece that clamped onto the rail, and then you could attach whatever gun holder you need to the clamp?

That's pretty cool Dan. So many gun racks look like afterthoughts, but I like how yours (so far) looks like it belongs there.

I don't know if the PVC will scratch wooden guns, but if you find that it does, you might consider some rubber edge trim for the holes. McMaster has lots of styles and materials.

haha sorry about that don. its because im doing a bachelor in biology and im going to end it in marine biology just interested in seeing one of those beasts obviously in a cage.

its not easier to buy fish. why buy when you can get them yourself? Not all people have internet the way you think people work their asses back here to earn their money.maybe you said that because you live in one of the most richest countries on the world.i get your point but that mentality of killin just for human control or for fun thats why most of the species of the world r desapearing.i would like to see animals killing humans just for the fun of it or for human species control and we r a lot of people so it would be good.and we get the fish ourself we dont send another specie to take it.when you spearfish you shot fish you can eat not the ones you cannot eat so i imagine sort of that you think what can i eat today.its just my personal opinion its a forum after all.i imagine that you catch fish that you CAN eat not a poisonous fish not undersize fish if you sell them you cant sell fish that you CANNOT eat .i just wanted to know why i got my reasons from you thanx im not used to see that stuff back here.

true

honestly i dont see the point on sending killing machine dogs to kill coyotes. why dont you kill them yourself? can you eat coyote meat? r they a problem where do you live like lunkerbuster said? thats a good point, much respect for you aaron i know its your way of life and i respect that but i dont see the point on killing animals for fun.kill to eat.

you guys have white sharks in cali right?

With 15' of chain, in light conditions, I bet you can get by with 3:1. Bear in mind that I do most of my diving inside the Bay, where the consequence of a screw up is mostly just the aggravation of re-setting the anchor. If I'm offshore, or have to ride out a storm, I put out more rope.

I generally use about 4:1 when anchoring in sandy bottom with our plow anchor and with light winds. I think you need more chain, though. The chain doesn't just function as a chafe guard for the end of the rope. A substantial length of heavy chain keeps the anchor pulling horizontally on the bottom, even with a shorter anchor rope, and dampens the impact of waves. So if you step up to 15' of relatively heavy chain, you can get by with much less rope.

I don't know your bottom conditions. But here, in soft sand, anything less than 3:1 is prone to drag.

If you are going into water that is deeper than you can reliably anchor, then you might want to look into a small sea anchor in case of an emergency.

I'm pretty ignorant about inflatables, but I personally have a habit of overlooking the obvious sometimes. If you have a rigid deck, is there a suitable place where you can install a cleat?

I assume that you want it in stainless. Be mindful of stuff with springs, because even stainless and brass fasteners sometimes have regular carbon steel springs. Is this an anchor for your boat, or something smaller like a kayak? How "quick acting" does it need to be? By that, I mean do you need to open it immediately from in the water without tools, or just something to take out when you store the boat at home?

If it's the latter, then why not a standard shackle?
