[quote=timinaustin]Pulling in the sides of the tramp frame is the recommended method. Compress them about 1-2" then lace per the above instructions. You won't hurt the frame!! You can also use a wooden fid to hold the lacing rope in place in each grommet as you work your way down the tramp.
Once you're done getting it tight, release the straps on the frame and it'll be REALLY tight. The tramp tension provides a ton of structural rigidity on the H16. The tighter it is, the more power you put down to propel you through the water instead of flexing the boat.[/quote]
