There are two options for the rear attachment, the one toward the rear is the preferential 
position but the position in the center of the Permaport is acceptable if the dock 
configuration makes it necessary to use that position. 

 
After deciding on the second position to be used, it is necessary to take an actual 

dimension from the Permaport in order to determine the exact position for installing the 
dock brackets. Measure the exact dimension between the centers of the holes, having 
determined that dimension Mark a Line on the dock as shown. Do not use the 
approximate dimensions.  

 

 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
Position the forward most dock Bracket so the center of 
the tube lines up with the line drawn on the dock, 
ensure that the bracket is firmly against the stringer and 
drive in the two wood screws supplied (Note: If 
necessary, chamfer the top front edge of the dock).
