Jim, I’m about to cover my newly finished rails and trying to determine how best to secure the covering. Do yours have snaps, zippers?Thanks!Dom Mucci Sent from AOL Mobile Mail Get the new AOL app: mail.mobile.aol.com

When we bought Sanderling in 2007 the hand and cap rails were covered with sunbrella covers made by the PO. The hand rails had a continuous line of hook and loop material on the material only (not on the teak rail) with a break for every support stantion so the seam lay snugged under the rail. The cap rail had snaps on the inside and outside boat surface just below the rail. Worked really well and had virtually no play. We got to the point where we took them off when cruising so we could see the beautiful bright work; eventually threw them away and didn't replace them when they became unsightly due to sunlight deterioration. <><><><><><><><><><><><>Mozilla Thunderbird<><><><><><><><><><> Bob McLeran and Judy Young Manatee Cove Marina MV Sanderling Patrick Air Force Base DeFever 41 Trawler for sale Melbourne, Florida Blog: http://mvsanderling.net/Blog Web: http://cruising.mvsanderling.net/ On 2/27/2020 08:49 PM, Dfmucci via Trawlers-and-Trawlering wrote: > Jim, I’m about to cover my newly finished rails and trying to determine how best to secure the covering.
