I had a canvas guy make me a screen that I can snap in place over my cockpit door. Once installed, the screen itself can be unzipped on both sides to remove it. The whole idea is to have screening for the evening hours if we are on the hook or if we overnight since I don't have a generator and leave the cabin door open. It is made with heavy duty zippers and screening material and the canvas is Sunbrella to match my other canvas. The screened portion can be unzipped or zipped from either inside the cabin or in the cockpit.
The first thing I had them do was install snaps on the inside of the cabin door opening. Here is what that looks like:
The screen panel itself is a three piece affair. The two sides with zippers attach to either side of the door and can stay in place even when the screen panel is removed:
This is what it looks like with the screen zipped in place and snapped top and bottom:
And here is what it looks like from the cockpit:
I think this will work out pretty well for us. Total cost was $150.
