Northwest Fishing Reports

is it adviseable to tow with stand up canvas up?i only go about 5 miles max 40 mph.I was thinking about doing it to keep out rain on the trip down.

Welcome to Washingtonlakes.com!

I never tow with my top up, but that's just me. I know some frames are rigid enough they can be towed on the freeway with no problem. If you are only going about 10 miles at 40 mph max you should be fine since that is about the speed the boat will be traveling on the water.

If you're not getting on the freeway for any reason leaving the top up should not be a problem.

Really depends on the support under it. I trailer ours with the canvas up, side and drop curtains up at 60mph for almost 80 miles one way. No problems with it whatsoever, but again, it depends on what supports it.
