I can but I don't think it would do you any good. He does custom work, you drop off your boat and he makes a custom cover for it.I don't think he keeps his patterns. Being Amish, I don't think he has a phone, but ill find out tomorrow. I have a walkin basement, so I can store my mast and sails in the basement. I made a support out of two by fours to hold the top of the cover, sohe couldn't use my cover for a pattern, as it's much shorter than the mast. My cover was $550 five years ago, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is double that now. I'd be willing to go see him for a price and if he has time to make it. In three weeks I could use my boat for a pattern. If there is multiple interest, we might be able to get a discount, since the rest would be just mark, cut, and sew.
