I wrote to the manufacturer yesterday asking about exactly that. I'll post the response when I get it.

I use 10's at the tower and 8's on the rear with another 6 and 4 for those odd points. Big fenders are the best solution for a relaxing day in the cove and no excuses for scratches.

Picked up some Big B's. Thanks for the heads up.

I drove up the evening before our week started. I arrived bright and early at 8 am to make sure I got a spot on the inside opposed to the slips facing outwards. I bummed out the guy who arrived just after me to mark the slips for him and his friends as they ended up one short.

I guess I'm going to have to arrive at 7 am next season.

Merry Christmas! Taylor is the best and no hassles with the lifetime warranty if one should fail.
Use a nylon washer to reduce the knot size and pull though. Largest I have found is 1 1/4" with 1/2" hole at the hardware store.
Tie both ends close to the fender so the line can not slip back through.
