John Mack's Foam Curtains

[David Mellon]

I have been trying to design curtains for a year. I didn't want to drill holes in my nice frames or use glue. Glue tends to melt out here in our desert areas. When I had the weather strip added to my jenny I kept the remnant cloth to use for curtains and other little projects. John's idea to use foam is just what I was looking for! I will cut foam pieces to shape and cover them with my spare burgandy Sunbrella. If anyone loses their step and grabs my curtains they won't cause any damage. Also the added insulation can't hurt when the weather gets extreme. Thanks John for the inspiration, I'll post when I get it done.

I see that you are in Anaheim. A "little warmer" here in Arizona. I used a 3M product that is usually used to glue molding and weather stripping to cars to adhere velcro for curtains. Since it is used for cars that sit in all types of outdoor conditions, it should hold up in the boat. So far it has worked fine for a couple of years.
