McGeeXJ, are you submitting for COTM? There is a special thread for that here labeled submissions, top of page. https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f54/
And read this first; https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f54/of...es-info-60350/

Here is a pic of flexing the frame rails and pushing my luck with the Atlantic (no it did not get wet).
