This Pontoon Boat Canvas Solution is an all-season canvas solution. However, the 4-Way and 5-Way PVC connectors in this kit may snap in extremely cold conditions. If you live in the snow-belt areas of the country, we highly recommend you upgrade to our Ultimate Winter Pontoon Boat Canvas Solution, (sold here on Amazon), which has solid Aluminum 4-Way and 5-Way connectors, and have a Limited Lifetime Warranty against structural failure. This combo-pack PONTOON BOAT CANVAS SOLUTION AND GATOR BITE CANVAS STRAP SOLUTION package (You saved $20) contains the necessary components to construct an easy to assemble, and remove, pontoon dome for your pontoon boat. The patent-pending Arch-Makers with a 6"rise are solid aluminum and designed to slide on the pontoon rails without screws or glue. Easy on, easy off. The dome, once constructed will hold all the components securely in place. The 3/4" Schedule 40 PVC pipes (NOT INCLUDED IN THE KIT) will be strategically cut and connected by the 5-way PVC connector forming the arches, together forming the dome. As the arches are connected together to form the dome, the dome is further strengthened by supporting legs under each arch. Within days, the PVC pipes will hold the shape that form the arch, making it easy to reconstruct the dome when needed. Each component is numbered chronologically to match the corresponding number on the 5-way connector. This allows for quick reassembling of the Pontoon Boat Canvas Solution and less time adjusting the canvas. Simply slide your canvas over the dome and connect your 12 piece Gator Bite Canvas Strap Solution to the pontoon floor fender and you’re done. A simple solution to an age-old problem. The 18 piece “Gator Bite” Canvas Strap Solutions replaces the straps (or snaps) of the canvas thus eliminating the need to crawl under the pontoon boat to secure the straps to the other side. The J-hook simply attaches to the pontoon floor fender with a shock-cord creating a flexible but secure mounting system that is easy to connect in minutes.
