Ben,
I am looking for a source for the nylon material for a spray deck. The local Jo-Ann fabric store does not have anything Waterproof.
What weight (denier) nylon did you use?
What Is it Coated With?
Is it available by Mail-order/online supplier?
Has anyone tried buying uncoated nylon and using a waterproof wash or spray? Does any body have a good source for suitable neoprene?
Any online sources for bungee cord or cord locks?
My boat has an extra large (20x42) cockpit opening so standard spray decks are out of the question.
Thanks,
Brad Farr
