Shane, Thanks for the cool photos of Night Moves. If I can get half the use out of my boat that you get out of yours, I'll be a happy man!

The aft lower shrouds on my boat are just forward of the poptop, and about 2-4 inches closer to the centerline than yours. Apparently, the guys I bought the boat from said the original owner started to add these aft lower shrouds, but never finished the project. So they did, though it looks like they may prevent the boom from extending all the way out.. Pair of real genuises! Just curious: did your boat come with them, or were they added later?

The capitalyachts.info site has a diagram similar to the one in my manual, and it shows only the 2 as well, no third aft attachment. I dont think it'll be difficult to have a yard move them to where yours are.

Thanks for the pictures, though. I cannot WAIT to get on the water. It has been a cool, breezy and rainy March, and i have the itch!

Jay
