Re: [Paddlewise] Tarps

I use drapery cord, (available at hardware stores) but that works because I
use the ultralight Silnylon tarps.  As for knots, I learned a slipknot which
I learned so long ago I cannot possibly describe it. It's a standard knot
used for adjusting the tension on tent stakes. I don't use those little tiny
metal tensioners. They're too much trouble to keep up with.  Marsanne
