Thanks for the advice. I have the stay off as it was replaced. I'm thinking
of gettting  a deck bag. Its mostly a pain when were're anchoring out. It's
a pain to store below, if I can role it up and leave it attached to the stay
in the bag I think that would work best for my needs.

Thanks again, Brandon
