Pete, The cover came with the boat, but I did buy a couple of the T fittings locally - I think it was from Genco Marine in Toronto. (Rangeview Dr., Mississauga ON) The T fitting is used to attach to the spine. Not sure if they have the other fittings or not. I would think commercial tent frames would use similar stuff? Good luck, Dave

Or each leg to the spine? *From:* CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] *On Behalf Of *Dave S via CnC-List *Sent:* Friday, December 30, 2016 10:56 AM *To:* C&c Stus List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> *Cc:* Dave S <syerd...@gmail.com> *Subject:* Re: Stus-List Quinte cover I had a cover made by Dennis at Quinte but my frame came with the boat. It uses aluminum tubing. In addition to the spine and ribs, I have vertical posts (5?) supporting the spine. Also, there are longitudinal pipes running parallel to and around a foot above the sheer, clamped to each leg though an appropriate cast fitting. this keeps the ribs from twisting. Additionally, I bungee cord over that longitudinal to the toe-rail. Seems to work. just posted pics here: http://cncwindstar.blogspot.ca/2016/12/winter-cover-frame-photos.html Better go check....
