First of all I’m using a suck gate with 4 inch diameter suction cups, I’ve tried smaller ones and they deafly don’t stay on under load.
I took the robber portions out of the handle and sanded the bottom part to the same curvature as the boat.
This was very easy to do I bought some sandpaper for a belt sander then cut it in half and taped the two ends to the side of the boat where the suck gate is going to be applied. I rubbed the bottom portion of the handle back-and-forth along the side of the boat on the sand paper making sure the plastic from the handle didn’t touch the side of the boat so it wouldn’t scratch. This created the same curve as the boat and the suction cup sticks like glue.
I also have to mount the suction cups on the spot where there was no Decal. I have a gravity games addition.
I’ve been using the same suck gate for two years now
