Just had a UV / Dust cover custom made for my 18 Classic. It is extremely light weight ( probably less than 2lbs total )and for use when the boat is either under cover on the lift or in the sun.
It came out perfect thanks to one of the Registry members who suggested that I send a pattern of the waterline and deck on a plastic sheet. ( the cover was made in Seattle and I live in North Carolina.) It could not fit better if the boat had been at the shop!
If anyone needs a cover, she has saved the pattern for the 18 Classic. Any other sizes would be no problem either but a tracing and measurement would be necessary. I would be glad to share the way we measured mine. As I said, mine is just for dust / UV protection but I'm sure they can make it with any fabric.
Cost was $430. Estimate from the folks who make the covers for the factory was $1175.
I've had some aircraft covers from the same people for six years with no wear at all. Find them at http://www.cunninghamcovers.com or 800 940 0342. Nothing in it for me, just like to send some more business to these good people.
