I took 1" EMT (Pipe used for running electrical wires) and used my hicky (pipe bender) to bend a curve in the one end. That mates into a 1' x 4" x 4" that has a 1" hole bored most of the way through it. The rest of the pipe goes up and over the windshield and all the way to the stern just over the engine. Two build them yourself sawhorses hold the pipe up in the middle and at the end. I use a pool noodle that i slit lengthwise that I place over the top of the windshield and overhang the corners about an inch so there are no sharp corners to pierce the tarp. then I put the VisQueen over the whole thing and then the tarp. Draw the whole thing tight with the steel cable that comes with the pool cover then tie the grommets to the trailer frame so there's no puckering. Never have had a problem with snow, water intrusion or wind lifting the tarp up and off.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)
Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
