[C320-list] Looking for C320 MK II Winter Cover or Advice

[kenneth bousum]

My take on covers.The cost of shrink wrap is 425. Covers generally last about 10 years and cost 4000 to 5000 so it looks like a push to me. I shrink wrap,  don't have the hassle to put it up and store it.

Subject: [C320-list] Looking for C320 MK II Winter Cover or Advice 

C320 Members, 

I am looking for a used winter cover for my 2007 C320 MK II, No. 1107 and/or any advice on winter covers.   

Advice being recommendations on material type (canvas, sunbrella, top gun?, etc.), fabricator (local or national), arrangement of the cover, how they connect, etc.   

We now keep our boat in the Seattle area and our wet winters have a way of making the deck of the boat a nice hue of green by the spring...  Of course, we didn't have this problem when we originally kept our boat in San Diego! 

In the PNW, we keep our boats in the water at our slips year 'round.  I'll probably use the winter cover from early November through the end of February of each year due to our limited use of our boat during those times.   

So any and all advice on winter covers for the C320 would be appreciated as I begin to research cost, materials, fabrication, and delivery.   

Also, if you have a used one in reasonable shape that you want to sell, I am interested in that route as well.   

Thanks for your time and advice!
