Bug screen

[wyctoronto]

We have a custom bug screen hatch/companionway screen that needs new cloth. Was thinking of using “pet screen” as it’s supposed to be stronger. Any thought?

if you need it to be noseeum proof make sure it is.

Used pet screen when I replaced the two damaged hatch screens on our boat.

I came up with a really fabulous companionway screen for the 49, but applies to all Hunters with hinged doors.
If you have hinged doors, you should look at this

Try Sailrite "No-see-um-bug screen."

Hi
I did a write up on this.
Having said that, I’m in Toronto, (as I gather you are as well), and I’m happy to show you this on my boat.

Hunter 49 companionway screen

Finally figured out how to make a companionway screen for my 49. This is actually an issue with all Hunters with companionway doors. If anyone is interested, I can send you photos

Sounds good. Here’s a pic of ours rolled up, it zips around the vinyl frame. Send a pic of yours?
