What has been the experience with PVC pipe frames?

 

Calypso is in the PNW where more than a few inches of snow is rare.  I will be 
erecting a cover to allow some deck work this winter.  I am considering PVC 
pipe frames and high quality tarps as the best compromise between cost and 
longevity (1 to 2 PNW Nov to March seasons).

Okay,

 

So what do all of you do about winter covers?  

 

I've used tarps previously but they are a bit of a pain and not that cheap.  I 
made a frame out of 1"x4" PVC trim.  I bowed them from toe rail to tow rail and 
it worked okay.  

 

I'd love to have something a bit better but I just got 2 prices for a custom 
cove.  The place that made my sails wants $4200 with the frame and the 
Faiclough wants $2900 with the frame.  WAY more than I wanted to spend.  I 
spoke to a guy at the Boston Boat show back in January or February and he said 
it would be about $1800.  That price I can tolerate but I forgot the name of 
that company...
