Hello!
I use my factory mooring cover regularly but have been rather frustrated that it doesn’t allow access to the mooring cleats! Doesn’t make much sense to me that Moomba calls this a mooring cover but doesn’t accommodate access to the cleats!
Here is a pic of my pier setup but as you can see in order to tie the boat up I have to run the dock lines and fender lines down under the cover and over to the tie up points but this doesn’t allow me to sinch up the mooring cover tight enough under the rub rail as it should be. When it gets windy I get worried that the wind will get in under the cover and blow it off since I can’t get it tight under the run rail.

Axis and a few other Manufactures includes these access hatch style access points in there factory covers...

Does anyone know where I can find these to buy by themselves????
All I can find are just these rubber reinforcements but I see a lot of manufacturers use the other hatch style???

I would like to just by the hatches and take them and my cover to a local canvas/upholstery shop and have them installed into my factory cover but for the life of me I can’t find that nicer hatch style one???
