Beautiful job.

Thank you Sharon, we are really enjoying the protection from the elements.

So much thought has gone into designing those enclosures, thanks for sharing the ideas and information, very much appreciated.. We are certainly going to use several of your ideas for our enclosure project (just getting started now).

[@Unwrittentimeline]

Thank you for your encouragement. We really enjoy having a full enclosure and the covers for the strataglass really helps keep it a tad cooler. Good luck with your project!

Great job. How did you do the part around the winch? Did you just flare the panel so that it was long enough at the bottom to go around the bump out and keep the top the correct length?

[@Unwrittentimeline]

Yes it is longer at the bottom. We used the Dura-skrim pattern material from Sailrite. We taped it to the hardtop since it already had the track. Then marked out the bottom. Thanks for watching.

I have trouble with snaps, they rust, which one did you get? Nice job!

We buy most of our sewing materials from sailrite. Sometimes they are a little pricey but we know the quality is there as well as customer service. The snaps are DOT snap fasteners stainless steel. We are sorry for the late response. Thank you for watching.
