I always tie to the trailer.  I just got done putting the light duty tarp on to keep the leaves out. I hate a boat full of decaying leaves.  |

Tying to the trailer is probably ok. Likwids point he is trying to make is never tie off to jack stands. This is an absolute no no. Stands get a little loose over time and if the wind catches the tarp and pulls the stands out....... over goes the boat.

I like the now muss no fuzz of a shrinkwrap solution.
I have been going out there with a broom for 25 years, snow in my boots, up my sleeves, so on.
Anybody own a shrinkwrap gun they want to rent?
You can do it yourself for reasonable money except for the dang heat gun.

A Taylor made boat cover. Instead of using the pvc stuff for the peak this year, I'm going to use one of those big pool cover pillows.
