Watch this video and make your own quick winter boat cover. The “Quick Winter Boat Cover” process is faster and easier to make than the “Traditional Winter Boat Cover” process. Why is that? Well for one, instead of making boots for a better seal at all obstacles, such as stanchions, a simple slit is made in the fabric to allow for obstacles to protrude. Second instead of making zipper flaps, zippers are simply sewn alongside the fabric’s edge which is covered in binding.
