Finalized the cover by adding a mesh window, putting in velcro, and making a flap. Also added stainless steel hardware to keep things in place. The only remaining task now is to add some weights to the bottom pocket.
Finished companionway cover
Got started on companionway cover
Finally got some time to spend on canvas work. With El Niño winter approaching, I better have the entrance (and teak) protected from the elements. The idea is to use the Sailrite tutorial as baseline but modify it to have flaps around my teak boards + add top part + add a pocket at the bottom for sandbags so this cover can hang well when fastened from the inside.
Teak plugs
Made some teak plugs from old trim and covered screw holes in the cabinet bases and companionway trim.
