1 have a WK 2001 250 with split back stays. 1 side is adjustable but frankly don’t see a need.
Could I just use one side and switch to a single backstay? My anchors are on either side of the stern….could provide pic….. double back stays are a pain getting behind the wheel
Thanks

My 2008WK has a factory single, on the port side, anchored on the deck, just ahead of the boarding ladder. A huge improvement over my 250WB with the split.
