Default Winter Cover Material

Where are you buying your tarps from?!? I bought a 30 x 20 Heavy Duty 14x14
mesh (the heavist I could find) with a 1000 micron coating for $36 as
Princess Auto. they were on sale. Normally they are $50 If you really want
to get fancy, shrink wrap, Otherwise spend $50 every other year. Pretty
cheap way to cover the boat.

I only bought the 30 foot long one as my mast is my ridge pole and I wanted
it fully covered (the boat is 22')


What size boat are you covering?

Canvas winter covers are expensive and rot out in about 10 years (Quoted
C$1400 for a 36x22). Cheap woven plastic tarps wear out in a year or two
(Can buy similar size for C$100 - $200)


Has anyone used any other type of cover? One would think that here would

be
some type of synthetic fabric that would outlast canvas yet still have

it's
weight and abrasion resistance.
