Fairclough cover

[southport]

Are there any Fairclough covers out there? We're thinking of doing that and it would help Fairclough if they had already built one and had the patterns. They thought we were talking about the Alden Boothbay Challanger at first. Or if there were a Challenger in the eastern L I area they could go and measure that one.

Thanks, Jon

I have one that I use that came with the boat. Very heavy and difficult to use without help, fits well and allows for breathing. http://www.fairclough.com/home.htm

There are several boats stored at Brownell's in Mattapoisett that have covers by Thurston Sails and Canvas in Bristol MA. These are the best looking and fitting covers I have seen, and am thinking of getting one myself. We just got a new dodger from them, and were very pleased with it and the service and the price - it took about a week to make after they measured the boat for it. It replaced a 25 year old dodger.

Thurston is in Bristol RI, not MA.
