Hi All,

New to Norman 20 ownership. Only had her a fortnight and learning loads about her. Happy to find a place to discuss this wonderful boat.

I have a question though. Does anyone know where I can buy a cover for her? either to go over the existing canopy (when not using for a few weeks) or to just cover the cabin when the canopy is removed?

I figure a more basic cover to chuck over her at the end of the day, or when the weather is really bad would be a lot cheaper than a whole new canopy and frame (both of which are knackered on our boat :D)
We've got a tarpaulin, but they are always too big or too small!

What do others do?

Many thanks

Hey and thanks for the welcome.

I'm based in Somerset, not far from Taunton.

Covered her up with tarpaulin last night as too worried about it leaking. The whole canopy confuses me as it doesn't look right. The roof sags for example and collects water :(

Also the frame is knackered.. does anyone make replacements? Also, the frame on mine is ziplocked in place.. is it meant to be easily removable?

So many questions... :D

Canopies and frames are generally made by specialist companies. Ask around where you moor, someone will know the local companies. Get a few quotes and ask to see their work. Quality of fit can vary immensely as can price.... but they are generally closely linked!!
