Typhoon Cockpit Cover

Post by Matt »

I just spent the morning at Sailor's Tailor in Ohio. I had with me an old cockpit/mooring cover in poor condition but that fits the Typhoon daysailer and I'm sure the Weekender perfectly. They digitized a pattern and I expect to have a new acrylic cover in 2 weeks. They are installing bungie cord along the sides and a zipper in front. They have stainless clips to install on the toerail $1.30 each and you need 14 (for the bungie). With cover, shipping, tax and clips, the cost was about $392. Anyway, if anyone wants one you can order and I will report in a few weeks (May 1st is launch date here). They usually have an ad in the trade mags. or email at www.beanbag.com I have had 3 of their covers over the years (for my Point Jude's) and have been extremely pleased and impressed. I will also take some digital pictures I can email to anyone interested.
