Nothing lasts forever. The stock tank well bungee is falling apart. The sun and weather degrades the bungee over time. In turn the degrading of the bungee made it become very loose and fragile. Purchased a piece of green shock cord/bungee last year but finally got 
around to getting it on the Cuda 14 this weekend. Although the green I ordered came in as yellow I didn’t mind at all. Actually it looks really cool!
I originally purchased 10′ of the bungee shock cord. Used about a foot and a half for my crate project last year. What i had left was just enough to replace the tank well bungee. I would recommend that you purchase 10 feet for the Cuda. This way you can cut off any excess. Being that it looks really cool on my next boat i will have to find 3/16″ bungee for the bow in yellow!.
I have to say it does add character.
I do hope it holds up well.
