Boat Cover Plans
Making a boat cover does not entail much work, but the benefits it proposes are numerous. hence, it is a good idea to learn how to make your own. you might opt to buy a ready-made boat cover, but it may not be of a very good fit for your specific boat, not to mention that the cost of purchasing it. Re: my "pvc-based boat cover frame support" build yeah pvc pipe is the way to go although a bit more costly than conduit for some reason and 80# conduit is very strong. you just don't get all the neat assortment of angle fittings. here's a look at mine.. Build a simple support frame with bottom feeder dollars! keeps water out of the boat in heavy rain and wind..
My interest in sewing perked up recently when i needed a cover for my 14-foot rowing wherry and i got some quotes from canvas shops. at first, i thought the prices quoted were offers to buy the boat, not make the cover.. Boat storage yards are expensive, while a regular cover will keep out rain, but it won't shed leaves or snow. that's why winter covers are oversize and have a frame like a tent. making your own frame for your boat's winter cover will save you money now and work at the beginning of fitting out season.. Find plans for pvc stuctures and ideas for your next project. cold frames, coop house, tool rack, arched greenhouse, bike rack, boat cover, pool cover, etc..
