Hello! Looking for a winter cover, preferably mast up.

Great photos And good job rigging the ‘Home Depot’ method. I do the same thing except I take the spreaders off (a cotter pin) and tie them up to the mast to get them out of the way. Then I take the life lines off (loosen the turn buckle and unscrew two Allen screws). This allows the cover to hug the hull from the mast down in a smooth transition.
I live on the bay in an area where the wind would tear that cover apart.
I also cover the mast with an old tarp folded into a 3 foot wide by 30’ strip. I lay it over the mast and tie it every 6 ft - to protect the cover from wear.
I’m hauling the boat this season for the first time on a trailer I bought from a fellow list member. It was a project but finally done. Almost!
I’ll send pics soon.
