2520 Bulkhead Station Cover

[cbradley938]

Do any of you guys use a cover for your second station? I have a bulkhead mounted second station and I'm looking to protect my shifter and bow thruster from sun damage. Thanks!

Yes had one custom made out of sunbrella fabric years ago. Works great.

Yes, I have the second station that's on the starboard side a couple feet behind the pilothouse. I too had a cover custom made out of Sunbrella. A mistake was that I used black Sunbrella and found out it got VERY hot under the cover; hot enough that I needed to wet-wipe the wheel before I could grab it.... I installed a 'vent' in the top of the cover; one of the vents people install in winter shrink-wrap covers for moisture ventilation... it works great and keeps the temperature under the cover mildly warm, not hot...
