I'm having trouble with my mooring cover support poles. When I get a heavy rain, the cover starts filling with water and then becomes a pool. It starts with the poles not holding the adjustment, and gradually sliding down slightly from the initial weight of the cover, then slide all the way down after the weight of the water becomes more.
I've looked for a way to tighten the plastic clamps, but I don't see that a possibility. I've also tried putting several zip ties around the inner pole to help in the gripping, but after a storm last night, I went out and saw that the cover was just a pool liner.
I've thought about squeezing the inside pole slightly, just above the top of the outer pole, but hate to make that kind of alteration at this time.
What have you guys done?
