Any one know where to find the bungee (Shock cords) that are attached to the canvas on Searays? Looking to replace all of mine on a 51 Dancer.

Me too. And they sent them for free! Now how's that for customer service?I got mine from Great Lakes Boat Tops.
Here is another source as well. I would call them first to make sure you are getting the correct ones. http://www.sailrite.com/Shock-Cord-Cover-Clip-White

Are you ordering the whole assembly or just the bungee cord? I don't have the same patience as skibum. They are very difficult to remove without breaking them. If you are ordering the whole piece it wont matter. The new ones just snap together where the old ones were. No need for the canvas guy.I was not so lucky, they want to charge me $5 each. The rep told me you have to break the old plastic housing to get the old one off and need to have a canvas guy sew the new Stayput plastic housing back on the canvas. Can someone confirm this? I was thinking they just snapped together.
Thanks

OK, well after installing all the tabs on my cockpit cover, I discovered that the shock cord length you get with the sailrite kit is a couple cm longer than the one on the Great Lakes Canvas. This prevents the cord from being tight enough around the cord posts. I think I will be able to get the STAY-PUTs back apart and together without destroying it so I should be able to shorten the cord length. Can anyone tell me the name for the brass clips at the ends of the shock cord that hold it in the snap and a source? Also is there a special tool required?
Thanks
