Ihave a way to solve any worries we run a 24' grady w/hard top, we have the reels at the back of the hard top. we run 35" dual boards with a hard angle cut on the front so they pull harder to stay tighter in turns. we put a 1/4 inch stainless eyebolt in at the furthest point forward on the frame of the hard top then attached a medium weight 3" long spring to the eye boly then attached a smaller big jon style pully to the spring and they run great. It may be a little trial and error on which spring to use. Good luck if you have any questions you can call me at 716-796-5372 thanks Jim

Thanks Jim
I really like the spring and pulley concept. I believe we will install that concept on our boat. We hope to be out on the lake at the end of April. Give us a call on the radio our handle is 4 the 4 of us. Normally we are on channel 69. I will also keep your number in case we have any further questions. Thanks Again Jim

Lloyd im actually from the buffalo ny area we will be on put in bay from 4/30- 5/8 handle is fishkiller on 68 or call my cell. The springs work out well they take up alot of the shock of the waves. and on the eastern basin we get some really rough water and they run great.
