420 parking and winter top cover

This Nautisails 420 top cover is designed to protect the deck, fittings and inside of the dinghy when the boat is stored at the club, on a trailer or during winter. It helps reduce exposure to UV, salt, rain and weather, while keeping equipment out of sight.

Its deliberately not-too-tight cut makes installation easier. The fit is then adjusted with sliding cords at the front and rear, combined with 4 tensioning straps to improve wind resistance.
