Can anyone tell me which ones I need(part numbers) and the vendor or direct me to the article ? I plan to have the cover open sideways to port.. Thanks in advance. P.S. I love my almond Dri-dek and Sternsaver! Thanks in advance. John Edited by Joe Kriz on 07/19/12 - 7:40 PM

I cut a few legs off the bottom of the Dri-dek, to eliminate the areas where the hinges are proud. Turned out great. no more fumbling with the cover.. mine opens to starboard and rests on the forward cushion..if you haven't done it to your Outrage, do it! All the best, John
