Sail Covers

[Peter Cockerton]

Just a quick note to mention a company that i used to make a jib sock, main sail cover with lazy jack cutouts and a mizzen sock for my bayraider. All made to measure and design which included my input. The jib sock has a full length zip down the side and loops on the top to haul it up with a halyard. My bermudan main cover will protect the sail when i leave the boat with the boom up and main flaked over it. The mizzen is a plain sock wider at the bottom than the top to take the additional sail and boom.

The cost was £250.00 for jib and main and £80.00 for the mizzen. The material seems to be very supple and durable with a beige colour which matches my spray hood exactly.

The company name is Walrus Fabrications and the contact name is Simon Elliott

This posting also takes of the annoying carpet cleaner spammer from the top of the list

Happy New Year to all

I endorse Peter's recommendation of Walrus - good quality jib and mizzen socks (to Peter's design) for £200

How is the mizzen cover fitted? Do you have to unstep the mizzen?

Yes, it is the only way.  I usually only use it (and the jib cover, for that matter) if I am leaving the boat for a few days.
