New cover required

Hi there, I need a full cover to be made for my 6.1m RIB as my old one was stolen.

Does anyone know of anyone in the Dartmouth area who could make one?

Thanks Richard

I bought one of these on the advise of someone in the know........

Boat Cover Top Quality 20-22ft speed/rib/ski/bass/deck | eBay

Must admit I wasn't expecting it to be great but needed one in a hurry - however when it turned up I was wrong, very well made and the quality of the material seems good too.

I got one of the Blue Ebay covers four years ago. Probably needs replacing now, just starting to loose it's strength and a few cuts appearing.
Good value covers. Over time it has lost some of it's flexibility but other than that, I'll be buying another one.

Thinks i may have a Rib cover from a Ribcraft I had a while back. Not sure what size but it's in good condition.

Cheap if I can find it... Any use to anybody ?

Thanks for all of your help. As it was for an insurance claim I was looking to replace like for like. The old cover was quite expensive!!
