[Rhodes22-list] Cockpit Cover

[Ronald Lipton]

The cockpit cover will use the existing snaps for the
boom room on the sides and ends of the cockpit and
will extend about 12" beyond the end of the cabin
to pick up the second set of pop top snaps.  I don't
have a lot of details beyond that, other than a sketch
on a scrap of paper.  I am not sure what you mean by
"open on the ends". There are no snaps on the top
of the cabin but the cover should fit tightly between
the snaps on the side.  There is no attempt to cut
out the winch areas. The canvas shop will fit the
cover in place.  In any case I should be able to
post a picture in a couple weeks.
