[C320-list] C320-list] Recommendations for mainsail canvas cover?

[kskis at aol.com]

Not for Harmony but on a prior boat 5+ years ago I used Lee Sail Covers online and was very satisfied with the results including a very careful order/measuring process and accurate, nice-fitting cover.  Good quality and price too.  Link follows.  Neil Kornblatt, Harmony #973 2004https://www.leesailcovers.com/mainsail-covers/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI2pGAlLj86QIVguiGCh2SJQXwEAAYAyAAEgLnbPD_BwE

Further complicated by the fact the people replace sails on occasion and every sailmaker designs sails and Dutchman locations as they see fit. No guarantees without accurate measurements.
