New tramps installed today. 70' of lacing rope was just right. They look pretty good by my standards; if you look closely you can tell that it wasn't professionally sewn but they are quite a bit nicer than the old ones. Total cost was about $400.00 plus some sweat and profanity.
Sam, take a look next time you're there and tell me what you think.

Re: Need Trampoline for 1994 PDQ 36
I installed my new trampolines on my 32 just after launch this year (I had to launch a few days before I got the tramps, so they were installed while the boat was in the water, which is always challenging). They fit great, Sunrise did a great job.
I washed the existing lines to use them, as I had no luck in finding reasonably priced line here in Chicago (24c/foot sta-set would be great, didn't find anything close to that price). I get the cross beam strong and then promptly dropped the entire center line off the boat into the water (18 feet deep). I used some colorful language when this happened.
So I used another line I had to do the center. If someone has run across a bargain (mail order) on line for the trampoline, I'm all ears!

For discount line over the web I always go to http://www.gencomarine.com/ they are in Toronto so you have to buy enough to cover shipping.
I live in Orlando and routinely work in Tampa so I try to stop by West Marine's (now only) bargain center in St Petersburg every chance I can. Yesterday I picked up some 1/2" sta-set for $.40 / foot.
