Fletcher 19 GTS

[Potter1951]

Just put the new bought flether19 GTS in the water for the first time this morning... spent more time trying to get the canopy down into the space behind the seats .... I'm sure there is a simple way of folding it down and back up again..... any advice as I find it a bit like an MFI flat pack ... bloody nightmare.... help please ..... thanks

You may have some luck on the Facebook page "Fletcher boats owner group". Lots of good advice there...

Take all the side windows out, lay the zipped cover out in the recess behind the rear seats with the zipper on the top and open. Put all the support bars together in the recess and the cover extended flat toward the bow of the boat. Then roll the cover up toward the support bars in the recess. One all rolled up zip the canopy cover up. Use the tonneau cover when you can instead.

I have a Yamarin 59 with a similar setup. On mine I have to take the back panel out but can leave the side ones in. I fold the side one over the rest and feed the canvass into the compartment followed by the frame. Took me a few goes to work the method out but this works on mine, very quickly and easily.

So it's really easier to use the winter cover than the canopy?

Yes that's what I did.
