Add a winch to your sail
To add a winch cover to your sail cover, you'll need some marine grade fabric, a cutting tool (we recommend a hotknife), a sewing machine, and some basic sewing tools and supplies.
Sattler® Marine Grade is a great choice for marine canvas. This high-quality marine canvas boasts excellent UV, water, and abrasion resistance. It's also easy to cut and sew. Many of our marine DIY kits include Sattler fabric for its quality and affordability for the DIY community.
In this video tutorial, you'll learn how to measure the opening, how to sew the winch cover and how to add the cover to your existing sail cover.
