The soft top relies on being "stretched" over the frame with a fair amount of tension on the lacing. We did repair a hole in the top, from a lightning strike, with tape.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17930398671280529448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208406.post-79312765855939880902020-07-08T18:18:30.947-04:002020-07-08T18:18:30.947-04:00That sums it up, Bob.

I have a "just ok" quality canvas grill cover I patched last fall that's holding up quite well, and it's in total sunshine during the day and survived subzero Minnesota winter, too.<br /><br />I've also used the liquid variety of FlexSeal with other fabric material and found it to be remarkably durable, so durable you wish it would wear out so you could replace it right.Ramblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08174202747233567172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208406.post-5784427457971873322020-06-23T17:43:34.486-04:002020-06-23T17:43:34.486-04:00I haven't checked on you folks in a while but ...I haven't checked on you folks in a while but we're anchored (on fresh water in northern SK) and that made me think of you. Yachting is paying someone to make repairs in exotic locations. Boating is doing the repairs yourself in exotic locations. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
