New Cover - nobody replies!

[Calne Diver]

Hi All,

Does anyone know where I can get a quote for a full-over cover for a 21' RIB?

I've emailed 6 places online and haven't had a single reply. Mine was stolen, and could do with a decent replacement but nobody seems to want the business!

Maybe someone on here does it?

Although down at South Coast I would suggest Covercare ltd at Thornham Marina, very good and if you can take boat to them they can do a cover in a day

I have an oppo down here who is very reliable. Distance a bit of a problem though......

South Coast again, and not the cheapest, but Sanders Sails of Lymington do a brilliant job

What Ian said re Sanders....

I also used PC Marine at Davis yard in Poole. Also good for me ..

Some years ago I looked in yellow pages and had a local guy make mine up who worked for himself doing farm/truck covers etc.

He was bril, he offered a choice of materials and colours, did an excellent job and I paid him in cash!

Not involving the marine industry seemed to make it all alot cheaper.

Out of interest.....how much do you guys think is acceptable for a 6m cover??

I've been quoted about £800 which I thought was pretty steep?!

That wouldn't surprise me in the least. There are so many different materials out there. I would only advise anyone getting quotes from different suppliers to get a full spec of the materials quoted for and a breakdown on materials and labour. It's pretty obvious stuff really.

We are looking at £1500 plus for the yacht canopy

Since you are in Fareham, Coastal Covers are just down the road in Clarence Marina or Tecsew just round the corner.

However, those e bay boat covers are the cost effective answer, have a search on here lots of us bought them a couple of years ago and they are up to the job.
