Oh yeah I forgot Todd knows everything about everything. My tramp was plenty tight back when it was the solid side style... it just pulled out at the back corners if you looked at it hard enough.

Telling a type 1 diabetic to lay off Twinkies is great todd. You should have been a ****ing doctor you know. You realize back when we had the one piece tramp I was 175 lbs? Whether or not it was the primary reason for going to the side lacing or not, it was more than common for the bolt rope to pull out on the solid tramp style. We tried everything to keep it on place.. nothing worked. We even put a fiberglass rod up in the slot and that couldn't even keep it in there.

Whatever crazy reason you think it was developed, I know the reason we switched was because the stupid tramp wasn't staying on the boat. I think that's a pretty damn good reason personally.
