It seems like a tautline or figure-9 would be a simpler solution that would allow the tarp to be retensioned regularly. HYOH I guess.

I didn't like the application of whoopies that way and went a different route. Luckily I was able to re-use almost all of that zing it setting up my current guy line system.

Shane, just wanted to say thanks for you posting that info on your tarp set up. I used it on my SF and it works great.
