Sprayhood cost

[PaulRainbow]

Fold original up and send to Sabre Sails??

my boat came with a sprayhood and stack pack. lookin at replys i never realised they cost so much. seems a rip off, especially when the old one can be used as a template saving the person making one a lot of time

See post #7 ?

There is a lot of labour in it.
I asked my local upholsterer, good guy, and he thought he could copy mine for £375. In the end I preferred to spend the extra 200 to get a guaranteed result, built up from a pattern.

I used Sabre Sails in Swansea. £375 and made using my old one as a template. Worked really well and very happy with the result. They also made a stack pack at about the same price.

Same here, they can do it through ebay but if you contact them direct they might pay your postage for you as they don't have to give ebay a cut. I know that's no use to the OP but someone might be interested.

If having a new sprayhood cut you might ask what type of zips they put in opening windows . We have metal ones which seem prone to ceasing up and I'm not sure I understand why plastic zips aren't used?
