5. Insert the aft outboard corner of the trampoline into
the extrusion on the inside of the hull and pull the
trampoline as far aft as it will go.
6. Repeat steps 2-5 for installing the starboard
trampoline.
7. In front of the rear cross bar there is a hole in either
inboard rail. Insert the port aft lacing line into this hole
on the port hull and exit it straight down. Tie a knot in
the tail of the line and then pull the knot up under the
rail.
8. Thread the lacing line from the inboard rail to the
corner grommet on the AFT lacing strip and then to the
corner grommet on the port trampoline. Temporarily tie
the line off to the rear cross bar.
9. Repeat this procedure for the starboard side of the
trampoline.
10. Attach the center trampoline lacing line to the
forward-most grommet on the starboard trampoline.
Lace it down to the rear taking out the slack as you go.
11. Untie the aft lacing lines and complete the lacing
starting at the outboard side and working toward the
center. See Figure 10. With use the trampoline will
stretch and require periodic re-tightening.
