Anyone interested in a factory rear sun pad for their 290?

Magster- how much do you want for it? Where do you store it when not in use and do you have any pics of it in place? Thanks!
Here it is in the parts manual. Still debating if that's something we'd use. I wish it was more molded to fit that spot.
Cindy (Cincy)- I am not trying to kill the sale but we have the pad and stand. It is extremely heavy (you need to hit the gym, it's 27 lbs... I weighed it), unruly (disorderly and reckless?) and there is absolutely no where to store (mid-cabin or maybe on top of the gas tank?). That being said - we have a family of 4 and use every possible space on the boat (5 here, that's why I sold... space). If it was just the 2 of us - we would store it in the aft cabin (I've never heard of a Sundancer aft-cabin, it must be very rare). Since the boat didn't come with the bow sun pad - it is a great place to lay out - but a pain to remove the table and put up the pad every time you want to use it (assuming you leave the table up all the time, I didn't).
It's 27 lbs. and the stand / pad would fit in a 2' x 3' x 10.5" space for shipping. That's with room to spare.
Looks great! I've been wanting a cockpit cover too. What I've found is the Great Lakes version that was an option with the boat snaps to the fiberglass at the base of the windshield. Since I didn't have the option I don't have all those snaps and don't want to add them so I've been wanting one that will snap to the existing snaps on the top of the windshield frame. That will require custom made. I've been quoted around $750 or so but haven't pulled the trigger. It's would probably save wear and tear on the other canvas.
Did the 06-08 290 Dancer come with a cover for the instruments/helm? Any suggestions on where I can get one?

:grin:
I wish you were closer. I'd consider it. Also, is it the standard white/ivory color?.
