Peek-a-Boo's

Does anyone have any experience with the Peek-a-Boo port shades made by Zarcor?

Thanks for the response. It is the first ones "Sail 2000". I was just wondering if anyone on sailnet had ever ordered or used them. If so what their experience was and if there are any drawbacks.

Neicy,

There was a Catalina 27 we were thinking of buying had those installed. At first I thought "Hey, cool." Then I decided I didn't like them. You can't open them 100%, you see.

The curtains on our Pearson 30 had deteriorated so far that after we removed them the Admiral pronounced them un-salvageable - put them through the wash, even on super-dooper-delicate or hand-washing, and they'd have simply fallen to pieces. So she ordered material and rail-slider-thingies from SailRite and made new curtains. They're beautiful .

Jim
