Oriental, NC

The aft corners of the boat are not protected by sunshades....so often there is pesky hot sunshine creeping into the cockpit at anchor.I've been meaning to do something about it for years and I've finally gotten around to it.  Lowe's has a very similar awning fabric.  Not an exact match but close.

 I measured and fabricated two panels that will hang from the existing shades using carabiners.

 

This is a first take at it just pinned in place.  Not a perfect solution but will give us some relief in certain sun angles.  Will tweak it in a couple of days after I get the caribiners that I ordered.

 

And we were treated to a pretty sunrise this morning.
