pintel and gudgeon
hardware for pop up rudders (and a common template that can be scaled but uses the same hw)
tiller hardware (admittedly difficult to supply for multiple sizes of rudders/tillers)

Those are all dang near impossible to find and know they will work for a design AND be high quality.

I'm almost certain that what you are doing is 1. click the button up there ^ 2. insert cursor between IMG tags 3. pasting The problem is in step 2. You are most likely highlighting the [ in the closing tag. Then when you do step 3 it gets blown away. Happens all the time to me. I tend to manually ty...

Just a thought.

then the poly will sit proud... Are you using a gasket to prevent water ingress?

There has to be "the other part" for that. You can't have that one piece nested with no match at the joint for the rest of the panel. If you simply lay out all the ply needed to make the panel you should be able to see the measurements. You likely need to find the one corner that is clear,...

That assumes the water is at the end of the ramp! at 1/2 low the water is 100' over mud. I'll take some measures this weekend. hopefully I'll get those corners cleaned up too.

I'll have to take my level and square out again, but I think this ramp is up in the 15deg+ range. It's much steeper than your standard roof. When I had the jeep I was regularly pulling guys up and out. Now they leave a come-a-long out for recovery. That's what is pushing me for a "how low can I...
