Now if I can only convince my father that a tarp should be put up under tension. He is from the old school that believes putting up a tarp under tension will ruin the tarp. So every tarp he puts up sags big time. I do have a question: What type of rope do you use? And do you rely on some form of tensioner for the rope or just use a good knot (and if so which one)? Currently I'm using this bulky yellow rope that floats. Upside it floats, downside it's bulky.
