Title: Mainsail Cover Source
Post by: ngatewd on May 27, 2014, 04:36:19 PM
I wish to buy a  new mainsail cover for my 1983 CP19.  Can anyone recommend a source that has the pattern?  Thanks very much! Ned

Try this source that Keith Scott, a CP dealer in North Carolina recommends.

From the his homepage, click on "Mail Order Canvas" near the bottom of the menu on the left.

Good luck!

Sailrite will have DIY kits.

Also, a book store will have books on boat canvas, how to make a pattern and sew it up. Its old school but it still works.

I second the suggestion by MHardy.  I got a cover for my PC from Lonesome Pines and was very pleased with the result, which I wrote about here:

If you call them, don't be put off by them answering as a self-storage place...that is apparently the other business they run,  John Fortune is the man to talk to.

Thanks to those who replied to me question.  I contacted Lonesome Pines Canvas, and I had a good conversation leaving me confident they will do a good job.  Thanks again.  Ned

Kickingbug If Ned does not take you up on that offer and you still want to find a home for that sail cover I will take it. Mine is in pretty bad shape.

Thank you for your offer.  However, I have already committed to Lonesome Pines to buy a new one.  Also brown.  Ned
