It’s in the mail so I haven’t tried it out yet and I don’t remember where I read the idea but I have some used billboard vinyl in the mail. Two 14’x23’ sections for $40 total plus shipping. Worth a try if you ask me! Goin to cut and fasten them together with eyelets or some other tarp fasteners. I’ll post the finished product |

If you are laying it over the tramp, I would recommend cutting water drainage slits in the tarp. I put the Hobie factory tarp cover on my Getaway, and in the first big rainstorm both tramps sagged a lot from the trapped water. |

I've ended up getting tons of the used billboard material - it lasts forever outside and sews fairly well. Cheap too. It's kind of tough; don't know how well it'll work for a cover, but I had intended to do the exact same thing with what I have left. I got black - not a good color for summer. |

We cut one up for our 20. They work great! |
