Good Luck and God's speed Bobad. It sure looks like it your turn again.

I think I would try to place it where it gets the least wind influence. With the changing direction of the winds that can be a problem. Is this it or are you talking about the small houseboat you once posted?

If this is it then we have something similar. We drag it onshore about 1/3 on shore (enough so that it will not float off). Never had any damage. However I note that our floats are not subject to tearing up that way.
