I might as well add something not directly in this discussion. Our Coolaroos have given me a lot of information about wind here in Florida. When the wind exceeds the usual 15mph, those Cooleroos bust forth from their holdings and when really tethered they are close to being ripped off of their wooden posts. I don't understand how people can put awning material on the roof of their screened lanai and not have the whole roof ascend and tear loose. Maybe a sailing person with a sail boat knows.
