First endeaver with the new Sailrite rig (LSZ-1 and hot knife). So until I start on some bigger projects to defray the cost, this is one expensive cover!
There will be a learning curve but I intend to never again pay for dodger repair. (Just the bills from the last two seasons added up to the cost of the sailrite...NO MORE!)

Cheers

We got one last fall at the Annapolis Boat show, have made winch covers, covers for the inset in the cockpit, and a new Bimini, next is a new cover for the pedestal, sail cover and finally the last thing will be a dodger...well worth the price of admission. But yes, our winch covers were very expensive last year Frustrating

Once you get it, that project list really takes on a life of its own .

When you have a hammer , everything looks like a nail.

Life sling cover
Sun shade walls
Rain cover
Dodger rebuild from scratch
And on and on. ..

The Admiral says "I have too many projects that your mother's old Kenmore just will not punch through. I need a REAL machine."

So, I guess we're getting one soon.
