Good point on the 303 protectant!

Is this a custom made custom fit cover 97?

No, semi-custom, they call them styled fit now, from carver. 10% Military / Veteran discount for those interested. Must call to order and ask for discount.

Had the vents installed by Sail repair gal, plastic PVC caps to cover ladder posts and front marker light. I used the float worms to place over all the cleats. Used the float worm to put under side of cover where gas vent is, allows it to breathe better.

I did not use cover to travel, because of the vents installed, used the cockpit cover and blue taped edges to prevent ballooning.

Put a cheap box fan in the boat and you won’t have mold or spiders. It also moves gas fumes through the vents.

Today I took my (new to me) F311 SR-1 out for a day on the water at Belews Lake, North Carolina. She performed flawlessly.

Not a bad choice on the Carver cover, have one myself and feel it is a great bargain.

Congrats on the new to you boat!

While I am awaiting my new boat lift in Florida, I added the name/graphics to the F311. I started on the port side and learned a LOT of lessons. They came out okay BUT the starboard side came out essentially perfect. The boat, oriented on the lift, will display the starboard side...so I am cool with the look (for now).

I kind of dig the name. Especially being your history of flight.
