I replaced mine with some I got from Lip-Ship a couple years ago. They've worked perfect for the past two seasons. The ones I replaced were the originals. The port side still held the starboard side was very weak.

Won't stay up anymore no corrosion. After I went to Lake Mead they stopped working. I guess it they don't hold up to 110*. I just ordered them from Phil $25.00 each and I think they are going to be 30# instead of 10*, so maybe they will spring up now instead of Knocking me in the head. They told me that you have to open them or the seal will dry out and the gas will leak out. I think what I'll do during winter is remove the pin and keep them in the open position, maybe that will help to make them last longer
