Model WCPA 750mm top £320 £200

Made from Acrylic or 'Topgun' with 3 stainless steel frames

One of our kits fitted onto a "Corribee"

Three frame sprayhoods have the third frame which fits close to the deck on special support brackets.

The main advantages are:

	Easier to fix
	Less fixing points to the boat
	The cover can be attached to the frames after they have been fitted.
	Support for the hood over the hatch.
	Clearance for control lines brought aft to the cockpit.
	Cover is semi tailor made to give a better fitting hood. We send you the frames first to offer up to your boat (with telescopic adjusters and instructions ) You can see at once whether the frames will fit or not. If they do, telephone us with the measurement between the deck frame and the forward facing frame We then tailor make the cover to suit leaving the bottom edge big and unfinished. All you have to do is to clip the cover onto the 3 frames cut and finish the bottom edge and fit it to the coachroof with turnbuttons, lift the dot or press studs. To order state actual size of "A" ( width of coachroof) Made in three size ranges at "A"
