Hi Baltic

Yeah I have the standard goodall boat cover. It loops over the bows and is fitted like any other boat cover. Its not exactly a great cover, it leaves larges gaps where the sides have been opened for the stays and front trapeze wires. Also the standard tie off system is pretty basic and time consuming. (upgraded to shock cord and plastic hooks)

I made one for my last boat, cost me $300 AUD and was a much better fit. When this one dies I will make another.

The two shackles on the whiskers are still there. no need to improve on things that work...
