Need a decent tarpaulin ?

[W.olly]

Thanks for the relies chaps. Ill go with one of the suggested and look at them closer later.

I have been busy today faffing in shed, what i though though is to get a small one to just go over the rear part over the flybridge and rear deck.cost half the price aswell.

Visqueen DPM.

Cheap. 100% waterproof.

Thick grades are very heavy duty and last for ages without degrading.

My boat has a big old pvc coated polyester lorry tarp over her, heavy & a pain to put on but i got it third hand & its got years left in it.
The boat shed has a polytunnel cover over it, about 20 years old now, Its on its last legs, Just got another one to replace it.
The cover is 11.6m long x 9.5m wide double hemmed with hd eyelets every 400mm, If i had had it made fromPVC coated polyester lorry tarp it would have cost about £1400. Alternative was a material used for marquees & market stalls, W1530 reckoned to have 15 year lifespan, cost was £750
If its going over steel use anti hotspot tape on the tubes.
Company i got it from is Weatherweave in Rayleigh Essex.
