: Beautiful boat Grant!

: I like the way the perimeter line looks. Have you tried the Leidy strength
: test?

Kent, No I haven't. In this boat the perimeter line fittings are epoxied to the deck surface (the outer leg) and through the deck and onto the inside edge of the shear clamp (inner leg). I expect they would tear part of the deck out before the would come loose.
