[Public-List] Cradles

[Rod Symmes via Public-List]

Hi Gord;

       By agreeing with your principal that the pads should touch as lightly as possible,  would it not follow that dividing that minimal pressure among 6 pads would be preferable to 4  ?


Cheers,     Rod

I prefer a four poster on the principal that as little of the cradle as possible should touch the boat as lightly as possible.  The only laudable function of the pads is to hold the boat upright.  There should be virtually no load on them at all.
