Post subject:  Am I harming my OB.

I made a pvc stand for my Outback. I've seen several on YouTube that have the tubes about 15" apart to fit the nook of the "keel". I tried this and it seemed tippy. I have an active (to say the least) 3 y/o grandson & I'm terrified that he will pull it over on him or push it over and damage my boat, so I spread the tubes out 33" and have 5 straps supporting the yak. Also 3 straps on the lower pipes (yes I'm OC). Please tell me this is not deforming my boat.

Sounds well supported and distributed. You are avoiding pressure on any specific points. That is good!
