Catalina 250 boom tent made by Fair Clough. Excellent for winter storage. Covers from bow to stern with access zippers. Used only two seasons. Custom made for my 2004 250, which I sold. New $1300.00. Will sell for $ 400.00 or best offer. I have pictures of the cover on my boat.

Hah Randy,
To be perfectly honest, I was stunned you hadn't already snapped this up. After all, it'd be up on the board for a good 30 minutes or so before I saw it.

Desmond,
I sent you an email with some questions, we'd like to see pictures of the boom tent if you've got them.

Thanks!

Hmmm...wonder what happened to him? Haven't heard a peep since he placed the ad several days ago.

Also no return mail from Fairclough or Catalina regarding the fit or significant changes in hull shape from my year (97) to this one (04).

Maybe they all went into a vortex...

If you've still got this for sale, I'm very interested.

Hah! We thought something might have happened to you, glad you're back. We're still very interested in the boom tent, and seem to be first in line (sorry again Randy & Steve).

Rita & I took a look at the pictures Sean sent us today & have decided to pass on the boom tent. There's nothing wrong with the boom tent that we can see, we were just looking for something to cover the whole boat, not just to the rails.

Steve, you have next dibs I believe. I mistakenly thought Randy did, and told Sean as much, then corrected myself in email to both of you guys, sorry.

Russ,
Randy has backed out as well, he stores his boat with the mast down, so nothing to hang the tent on (same with us).

Steve,
I sent the pictures to your email. Let me know if you did not get them.
Russ,
I guess you have seen the pictures. If not let me know.

It would be alot easier if I could figure out how to post the pictures here.

Steve,

Can you post the pictures when you get them from Sean?
I would like to see them even if you buy it.
I might have to order one or show the pictures to a local canvas shop.

Thanks, Russ

Gary, I told Sean that as I use the boat often, its not critical for me but may be for you so I am letting you have a shot at it. If you dont decided to buy, I will. Let me know.

I haven't even seen pictures of it anyway. If anyone has them I'd at least like to see what it looks like. My boat is cooking in the hot Texas sun and I'd like to get it covered but yes Russ is ahead of me.

Maybe Russ could take some measurements so I could build my own.
