Re: Anchor point placement for internal bungee hat *Pic*

What I tried to do was place the anchor points only as low as necessary to get a decent downward pull on the hatch covers, but not so low they get in the way of gear. On my S&G, I placed them about half-way down the side hull panels. This might have been a bit too low. Use your best judgement.

: I am trying to decide where to put the anchor points for the internal bungies

: Would the placement on a S&G be about the same (about 2" below the
: shear clamp below the corners)? Thanks.
