AlpineK Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 I think it's more important to lash down whatever tarp you use so it doesn't flap a lot in the breeze. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ketch Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 TLG, I second the good lashing comment. I think either one of the tarps will do fine. But, If you let anything flap in the breeze it will die in a few hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EWolfe Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 I think I have a Red Green episode about that. Let me check and get back to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelawgoddess Posted April 5, 2004 Author Share Posted April 5, 2004 thanks, dudes. they're not actually tarps, but those soft rooftop carrier thingamajigs that have zippers and straps and whatnot. no flappin' will be happenin' - lol. i went with the 20-gauge ... only 'cause it was cheaper. and i will have duct tape just in case.
