With a new season coming up I'm in the process of buying a new top cover for my Buzz. Can anyone please give me some feedback on what cover/supplier is the best option? Thanks in advance.
Regards, Mark |

Hi Mark - I've just bought one from Goldfinch at £110 excluding delivery as I collected in person. Material feels a bit light weight and only three straps instead of the usual four. Sail Register cover material looked good at the Dinghy Show and I think a Buzz cover is about £118 including UK delivery. Banks are good but more expensive. John. |

I've got a rain and sun cover, when i bought it, it was 15% off not sure if it is now.
Very happy with it seems well built and good material also with stu's recommendation to them they have added the strap right at the back which is good.
One thing to note is be careful when going through the checkout process if you are just trying to find the postage costs as i managed to buy the cover without meaning to and then they ask you to pay for it, luckily i wanted it anyway.

Hi Josh,
Can you provide me with the URl from the website you bought the cover? Seems like a good choice, and thanks for the practical advice for the strap at the end.
Thanks in advance, Mark |
