String level side to side, and fore and aft. Measure differentials off deck and pull new strings.

Any chance of jacking the trailer closer to level?

How'd we miss connecting yesterday? Or had you forgotten to bring the fence?

If the boat is at an angle and the leaning post is attached to the boat at the same angle , then the tackle compartment needs to be at that angle..

In other words use a tape measure to measure from the top of the compartment to the top of the leaning post and use the same reveal on both ends.
