Post subject:  Hobie tandem island mast/sail sleeve/ cover

The cover for my TI sail/mast has not fared well under the sun. It's falling apart. New ones cost over $110 with taxes/shipping etc. Has anyone found a vendor for either a cheaper or higher quality one? Cheaper is OK but I prefer higher quality so I don't have to buy them every couple of years. Here's the URL for the part from one vendor:

I’ve thought about this as well. It’s very simple construction but finding the material in that length could be difficult. You may try a local awning shop, they could have a resource for you and might be willing to make you one. If you can, look for a fabric called Sunbrella. It is by far more durable and UV resistant that the nylon/polyester that the original bag is made from. Good luck
