Ok, I posted about this a long time ago and appreciate the responses, but I have some more info and questions.

Hello Everyone!

I have not been here in awhile, been busy working on our car projects but am considering trim tabs for our 5.0 Ford I/O Sweet 16.

What would be a good way to go, I am guessing...

I like the giant saw horse idea, probably going to work off that, yeah we will store next to barn to protect from wind

I will keep you guys posted, also any pics of tent ideas?

thanks for the tips, I like the idea of a tent over the boat, with a sharp center roof line, we have the space, will be stored at my dads where there is a big yard

the full cover I have is...

Ok, the last thing I want to do is store my Sweet 16 outdoors but we may have to this winter. Besides the typical winterizing what should I do?
