I am tired of putting all the canvas on when leaving the boat. Considering I use the boat practically every day that's a lot of work. I'm looking for a mooring cover new or used just to eliminate some of the work preferably in navy but would consider other colors if need be. Thanks!  |

Bought mine two years ago and had it installed by the dealer (yes they have to drill at least a dozen new snaps into the gelcoat... cost $1000 (installed but it was open package).. and to be honest I rarely use it... definitely when tropical storm force winds are predicted and when I take the canvas and isinglass home to clean .... but not much more often than that. Interested in others opinion... Try Brian at Arnold's arnoldsboats@bellsouth.net |

Are you looking for a mooring cover or a cockpit cover? doesn't a mooring cover go from bow to stern?

You may have a good point there. I'm not sure. I just want to cover the cockpit.

We have always used a cockpit cover. It keeps the rest of my canvas and eisenglass looking good.

You are 100% correct! What I called a mooring cover shoudl have been cockpit cover. Basically when I leave my boat I want to keep all my canvas stowed in the cabin and just snap on a cockpit cover to protect it from the weather and seaguls. |

When all is said and done... I guess it's a matter of preference.. Many nights i get to the boat late and would rather not have to crawl under the cover... BUT when I have to put up the glass and canvas and it in the 90's like this past weekend.. the green house effect is BAD!!
NO GIN.. it took a while but i got a reply from Arnolds .... pay pal $$ sent and am waiting for my order... Best suggestion would be to keep trying or give them a call....

I would rather get a new one from Arnolds but like I said, I have been waiting for months and I don't think they have them.
