I finally brought my boat back into the canvas shop to finish the work to add a cover for my aft deck. This piece zips onto my existing mooring cover so that I can remove it when towing, but put it on when it's parked to keep birds, debris and weather from making a mess of things. My usual boat parking space is angled downhill a bit so this is particularly nice for me to keep rain and snow from leaking into the boat.
The canvas wasn't a perfect match because they used Sunbrella, but I'm very pleased with it. They ended up quite a way over budget on time spent but still only charged me $320 for this including the nylon straps they added to the front of my cover to make it tow-worthy.
For you guys leaving your boat in slips, it wouldn't make sense to use the nylon straps on this, but for me where I only tow it and park, it works great. I'm very pleased.
