    So i bought a new trampoline for my h16 becasue the other one was completly gone. I ended up buying 50 feet of rope off of ebay that says it is for the purpose of lacing the trampoline. My problem is i have no idea how to do that. Is it supposed to be done with one continous piece or do i need to cut my rope? And if so how long should the pieces be? everyones help would be great the weather is getting nice so i cant wait to head out

    My 2 cents. You will need to cut it into three pieces, one 19', two 15'. The 19' is used for the center and the 15' for the two back.

    I will need to buy a new trampoline for my Hobie Cat 14. I am afraid I will have to take the whole boat apart. Would you email me that assembly manual at mdescoll@gmail.com. Thanks!

    I just relaced my Hobie 16 a little trick I used was I laced up the tramp as tight as I could. Then I wet down the lines and put dish soap (to reduce friction when going through the holes in tramp). Starting from the begining I pulled slack from forward to aft and retied the final knot on center lace. Do the same for the sides. It was really amazing how much tighter the tramp got using this technique.
