With a little bit of grinding and some trimming it might fit  ;)

Pagoda?

Maybe I am wrong here but where do they say "Pagoda" They say Ponton 180/190 etc. and that's supposed to be correct. :o

Or am I missing here something?
Maybe they already updated the text because of your comments?? ;) :D ;D

Indeed, the text was changed from "Pagoda" to "Pontoon".

Actually, I couldn't resist the temptation to point it out to them on eBay. At first they didn't believe me, but now it has been changed to "Ponton" and they even want to send me a gift (probably a key strap or something) - but now I feel guilty, cause that gift should really go to the starter of this thread and not me :-(
