WW...thanks for the tip on the polished aluminum. If I do get those I will probably coat them.

Slack- I like those mounts on the side of the hardtop but mine being a rigid soft top will require a tree. I think I will go with tracks as well to add singles down the sides and stern as needed. So more importantly, tell me how you like your searunner! I think I’m going to love mine but you just never know about a new boat until you put some hours on it.
