If I cut it around the A frame then yes easily, it's sort of closed now and would keep the boat dry, there's 18" or so of the cones stuck out. I'll put up more pic's tomorrow.

Lucky it has a logo, otherwise you'd still be out there now.

I'd put the logo on the back and grumbled for 3 days that it didn't fit too well, boyo looked at it, called me a cock and then we put it the right way around!










As you can see from pic 1 as soon as I cut around the A frame it'll cover all the tubes. I'd leave it as it is but there's no A frame 'furniture' on there yet.

My cover arrived Friday. Good quality and fits well enough to keep the boat dry.

Thanks for the link Nasher..

i've had my cover for about 2 years now and the material is feeling very soft now and it must let through a fair bit of water, does anyone now any chemical that i could maybe wash it with or even rub back into the material to give it back it's waterproof properties.

Mine's letting a lot of water through now. I'm going to spray it with Fabsil when I get a chance to see if that helps.

Not sure. It's this stuff:-

I've got a litre of it lying around so it'll cost me nothing to try.
