Most yards will not allow you to secure the tent to the ground. I have found that a combination of plastic tarp grippers (don't use the built-in grommets -- they tear) on doubled-over folds in the tarp in combination with bungee cords passed under the hull to keep tension on the tarp works like a charm.

Question: why remove the propane bottles?

Many seem to agree that the boat should not be in the water, but nobody has mentioned osmosis (blisters)! You can ruin a good hull by leaving it in the water for 12 months per year, and the repair is expensive (or labor-intensive)
