Brand New-Never used-Free to a Good Home

Pipe - I’ll look for mine and if I find them, will post measurements. If Sky’s work for you, the shipping will probably be less than from the left coast, but if you need mine I’ll get them packaged up.

Measured my v-berth on the way to work this morning and as I told Skycopper above his won't work for my boat. Cuddy is 62.5" forward to rear, and 67" wide at its widest. I would think yours would work for me. I can't imagine Wellcraft changing the cuddy dimensions from '83 to '85. Let me know what you find, and I appreciate it!
 
Well, this is embarrassing - looking where I kept them for years didn’t turn them up. They may have been a victim of one of our clearing out projects. There’s another place that I need to go through - it will take a while and I’m not real optimistic, but will let you know when it’s done.
 
I also had the low top when i got my V. First ting i did was get a Bimini. Couple of years later, i got the enclosure. Second best thing I did after the bow pulpit.

Wish i could make it work on mine. U guys with a V21 should hop on this,even if u have to get a top made to fit the enclosure.

Dusky’s looking good!!
 
Best part is, hidden under the bed all these years means no light. So only one small area of one panel has a hint of yellowing, the rest is crystal clear like new. Bulk pickup is coming soon and the wife won't stand for a keeping stuff for a boat I don't have anymore. Complete cover, cushions, and enclosure will all be heading for the dump! Isn't there a local Florida V21 that can use this stuff? IT'S FREE!!!!! (To a good home)
 
I think the hull is exactly the same in this area, however I believe my deck height is slightly higher than yours changing the overall shape slightly.

Should have used this technique:

Hey, Skycopper, I'll take the windshield bumpers if still available. We went out in the boat today and I noticed I was missing one.
 
Hey Pipe - I may have gotten rid of the cuddy cushions, but it’s possible I moved them to the over full storage above my shop. I’m grabbing spare minutes to clean it out - will let you know when I either find them or confirm that they’re gone.
 
I ended up with the full custom V21 cover from Sky Copper. Just as advertised - tighter than OJ's glove! This thing is really nice. Also got the 4 panel enclosure (brand new from the wellcraft Factory circa 1995) however my factory blue bimini is a bit worn including the zippers that zip to the enclosure panels. Everything lines up perfectly but the old zipper on my top won't hold tight with the new zipper due to wear. Oh and got the motor cover too - fits perfectly! Big thanks to Sky Copper!!!!

You’re gonna really enjoy it Blue. I had a three sided enclosure on mine for 15-20 years. Made January,February & March much more fun.

Skycopper,Thanks for keeping it in the family.
 
I got an original enclosure on here several years back that came off Franco's 1982 V20 with bimini canvas, poles and all. Had to adjust the snaps for the curved side windows on the V21. It served me very well but the front windows and bimini are a little tired so I haven't used it in a year or two. I may have to get someone to make a new bimini canvas to match the factory one I have. It is blue sunbrella, just like the custom cover and new enclosure
 
That cover was made many years ago by Beaver Brand Canvas in Ft. Lauderdale. They also replaced my factory Bimini with an exact copy after 20 years or so. I have had wonderful luck with them and as you can see their work lasts the test of time. The boat cover was made when my boat was new in 1996. I think their work with canvas is so good because they are a huge local sail maker, and sails have to stand up to some amount of torture.

Sky - I've been in talks with Beaver about remaking my bimini canvas. Told them I was going to send them a picture so they could get an idea. Problem is I haven't been able to take the cover off to get the pics as of yet.

Thanks Dave, me too! I still keep the boat under the shed but this is gonna help me NOT have to clean the boat before I go to use it.
