... put a big hole in my boat cover. Went down today to see if there
was any damage. Found the cover torn where I had it propped up to
'tent' it. The 20+ inches of snow, with no wind to speak of, just
wouldn't fall off the cover and the weight caused it to rip.

So, I need a good way to repair about a 1' by 2' section of boat
cover. Might try iron on patches, if they come that big. Don't feel
like investing another $400 for a new cover now.

Any suggestions?

That's been mentioned a few times, D'Plume. As brilliant as you are,
I'd think you'd bring something new to the party.

I think as brilliant as you are, you'd realize that I posted it well before

If it is canvas it will need to be sewn to have any strength. Any
sailmaker or canvas shop should be able to do it in a few minutes.


For about $125 or so, Herring the idiot could have had a guy who knows
what he is doing build a virtually storm proof shrink wrap cover for the
boat he rarely uses. Typical "canvas" boat covers keep dirt and UV off
your fiberglass. They are not storm covers.

**Jackass Alert**

Good idea. I found a couple shops in the area that make boat covers,
so they should be able to repair one. I'll make some calls tomorrow.

Hey! Harry finally finds a niche in which he can give expert advice.
It's in the "Rarely Used Boat" section of the NG.

I've heard it said that there's a place for everyone...

Harry is such a smart guy. I should have asked for his advice before I
bought a boat, cover, camera, car, house, stocks, etc., etc.

Thanks to all for the suggestions, especially Harry and the plum (try
a sewing machine!).

Comments appreciated. I found a shop that'll do the job. Now I'll let
it dry out a bit and take it in.

Again, thanks

I guess you don't know how to use one. You should learn.
