I may need to store my yak on my patio for a short period and I don't want it in the elements...I have a Stealth 14...Any ideas?

OEX Sunset beach used to sell kayak covers, I'm sure they're not cheap but it might be cheaper to get one of these and build PVC stands to sit on than to buy a full blown cover for it.

Contact Andy at OEX.

Seems to me too that a tarp would be fine. Plus a lot cheaper.

I have a Dannu, if you're interested. I used it to cover my X-Factor (many years ago).. One of the straps are broken, but could be fixed. I also put a 1/2" slice in it for a cable lock. Shoot me a pm..

Why do you need to cover it? I keep my hobie in the yard, its in the shade most of the time but gets sun as well. Been doing that for a couple of years with no problem.

for a temporary cheap solution go to harbor freight and get a tarp. My covers start at $99

I live up on a hill where it's windy almost every afternoon. It seems like no matter how hard I try and no matter how many straps I use I can't keep a tarp from flapping, rubbing and coming loose. I've found that poly tarps are pretty abrasive and when they're constantly rubbing they damage almost anything. I'd also like something that's a little less of an eyesore than a tarp.

I kinda live in the hills where there's lots of dust in the air...hoping a cover will not only keep the UV's off my yak but also dust and leaves and other crap too.
