custom 1980 46' post

About Time - Beautiful boat! The folklore I heard about flag size is 1"/ft in length. I thought it seemed too small for my '50 so I went with a 36"x60" on a 60" pole. See pic attached.

I'd have to measure but, it's not oversized. I believe you "strike the colors" at sunset, and there are special rules about burgees and height prominence

Here is mine...

Full Xglass could be an option, not sure... but black is not done in my opinion, maybe silver?

Sorry misread, thought you don't want white......do you mean flybridge or cockpit?

If Flybridge, limitation could be the Xglass sheet size, but I would like to have the front window in one peace (changing that now)!

For the Cockpit shade I used white on top and gray down, much relaxter for the eyes!

This shade goes up and down in 5 mintues. The Adjustable poles are made by surefly in fla. I have the canvas attached with a channel so I simply roll it up just under the cockpit overhang. Works for me rain or shine.

It comes that way and holds up already 2.5 year in the Curacao sun!
Will ask the name of the material, it's a sort of vinyl, let you know.

Sunbrella fabric, no vinyl, first one lasted about 8 years up here. Different design. This one 1 years so far The company that makes the poles is sunfly located in florida, might want to check with them for info.

looking good, great metal work. I would recommend a white vinyl top with a different color below to reduce glare. I have seen grey or light blue used and they both look good

As prommised, white/gray vinyl still in 'as new' shape after 2,5 years in extreme salt, windy and 365 days sun climate
