[Rhodes22-list] making pop-top more secure (not more water-tight)

[peter klappert]

A related question: I've found it all too easy to jimmy the pop-top open, even with it locked and with Stan's tie-down to a clam cleat as taut as I can make it. Has anyone come up with more/better security?

Mike,

I amazed at the amount of pine needles that get into my cabin.  I can
understand some water blowing in but not pine needles.

I'm not sure if I would want to make my cabin too airtight.  I've always
thought that my loose poptop seal might help keep the cabin aired-out enough
to prevent mildewing.  For extreme waves and hosing a bunch of towels as
temporary seals might work best.
