Mooring cover options?

Postby pdx568 » Fri Nov 21, 2008 1:11 am

Hey all! I keep my boat on a trailer near where I sail it, so it is stored mast/rigging up. What is the best cover option, and the best place to buy? Is www.sailorstailor.com the best, or do you know of other options?

Also, if someone has a lightly used cover for a deal, I'm all ears!

Thanks!

Check out Rooke Sails, www.rookesails.com. They have a nice cover for around $300 that covers the top with mast and boom up and has a 6" drop around the sides. Sailors Tailor are quite good but pricey. They however are the only option if you want to cover the hull as well. Good luck.

Sailor's Tailor

I bought a mooring cover from sailor's tailor. I am very happy with the fit and quality, but they repeatedly delayed shipment. I called and complained after three dates came and went, and finally got it.

As I explained to them, the best cover is one that is on the boat and while they may be justifiable proud of their product, waiting several months was not acceptable. If they had told me up front that it would take 8 weeks, then fine, but they continued to promise it by certain dates.

A great cover, but make them commit to a date.
