'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?

John, I understand your plight. i was wondering if one of these would
be of any kind of benefit to you. They're not expensive. In my area, a
one care model is about $799.00 (or a bit less) depending on how it's
outfitted. If you have the room for it they do great. and they do hold
up well.

Costco sells a portable garage for about $200.


Just the thing to spiffy up the neighborhood...


Harry, you said you'd send me some pictures of your 36' Zimmerman clone
lobsta boat. Where are they?

IF I had my half-acre in North Carolina, or IF I didn't have a wife
who loved the trees around our current house, I'd have one of these in
the back yard, IF the county ordnances permitted same. Since the first
two aren't a given, I can't have a shed.

Good idea though.
