Typhoon mainsail and tiller cover

Post by bamabratsche »

Hello all,

I'm selling my used Typhoon mainsail cover and tiller cover--they are both in very good condition but have been replaced by a couple of learn-to-do-canvaswork projects over the summer (see the Projects section of this board for further details).

The sailcover is Pacific Blue Sunbrella, and was professionally made by Bacon Sails in Annapolis a couple of years ago for the previous owner. It is in great condition, the only caveats being that the Bacon logo is faded and there is some minor fraying around one of the twist-lock fasteners (see photo below). The photos were taken a month or two ago this summer. I'm not sure how much these generally cost new, but based on Sailrite's price of $284 for a new, finished one, I am asking $100 plus shipping.

The tiller cover is a "Blue Performance" of unknown age but good condition, just a little dirty from a lot of months out in the elements. The fabric isn't Sunbrella, but is some kind of synthetic that has held up well to a couple years of UV exposure. It fastens with a velcro strip along the entire underside, and just fit my tiller. Asking $25 plus shipping for this one.

I would like to purchase them. Text or Call me at 803-201-5048 so we can work out the details. As you can see that even today, after my sail, I have no cover!! Yikes!!

Unfortunately they were both sold to the gentleman from South Carolina a couple of weeks ago. Thanks for the interest, though.
