Cockpit storage
space covers
2012-04-15
The old covers were made of satin Plexglass and when one of
the upper ones broke when we stepped on it we decided to try to
find out a better solution. First choice was teak but when we
remembered that we had some Corian boards at home we decided to
go with them instead. The manufacturing was easy, just measured
the old covers, routed the edges, drilled a couple of holes and
finally polished everything nice and shiny. After using the
covers for one season we have found them to be much more durable
and you don't have to avoid stepping on them as we did with the
Plexiglass covers.
If you are
interested in Corian I have some material left in my workshop
that I can sell for a small amount.
