Rich:

Good point which is why I put a few wraps of white tape on mine on both ends and in the middle so the cover can't slip open. And since it is only on my babystay, I rarely grab it for an support.

Just a safety note on the car cover: I had them on my C&C 27, they looked right sharp! I took them off shortly after on the day I climbed on board grabbing a shroud for support. The cover split open, collapsed down the shroud and dumped me on my butt on the dock. Close call. Never again.

I have a baby stay as well.....as Ken pointed out on the Binnacle site, I use both the six foot length of 'cable cover' on the babystay itself and then the 'turnbuckle cap cover' on the turnbuckle on the bottom.

Are looking for a cover for the cable itself like these: http://us.binnacle.com/Sailboat-Hardware-Cable-covers/c28_148/index.html

Or a cover for the turnbuckles like these (scroll down a bit to "Turnbuckle Boot"): http://us.binnacle.com/Sailboat-Hardware-Turnbuckles-&-Accessories/c28_147/index.html

    My boat came with white plastic tubing on the babystay, which I
    am told are called shroud rollers.  I was told that it protects
    the genoa while tacking.  The tubing itself is cracked in
    various places and I am thinking of replacing it, but can’t find
    anything similar online.  Does anyone know a source?  Dave
