Pocketship Sail Cover

Postby Sailing Surgeon on Wed Jun 14, 2023 5:39 am

I was wondering if anyone has recommendations for sail cover for a Pocketship. Currently it is unavailable through CLC with an unknown date for availability. If you have a recommendation for a company that you have had make you one please let me know.

Thanks,

Tom

I made my own set of sail covers. They were basically an imitation of the ones CLC sells, based on the photographs on their web site.

I used 7 yards of 60" wide Weathermax fabric, plus thread and a bunch of those twist-lock fasteners. I think I spent about $160 for everything.

It was not an especially difficult sewing project, since the pieces are all flat. Of course, you need a reasonably robust sewing machine.
