Safeguarding your boat investment Whether your boat is stored in or out of the water, no other cover shields it so effectively from ice and snow, sea salt, and the effects of pollution. Fairclough boat covers prevent costly repairs due to fading gelcoat or damaged brightwork, while adding years of life and enjoyment. The only requirements for our Boomtents to work, you must leave your mast and boom in place and have either a perforated toe rail or stanchion base to tie to.

  Benefits and value no other boat cover can top

• Quick and easy installation and removal
• Zippered door for easy access
• Can be fitted to accommodate rigging
• Vented for mildew resistance
• Optional extension skirt, made to protect your varnished toe rail
• No frame is needed, but is available for using with your mast down
• Made to last for years and years

Cheap boat covers can cost you plenty…

• Many last only one year
• Provide no doorway
• Don’t fit around rigging
• Are prone to tearing or blowing off
• Create a “greenhouse effect” and promote mildew
• Create waste — and are environmentally unsound

3 easy steps to prolong the life of your boat cover and boomtent system

• Remove snow loads, only takes about 15 minutes to get aboard and pat the underside of the cover to knock the snow off, if done shortly after the storm.
• Do Not leave your boat cover on over the summer.
• Remove cover dry and store your cover in a dry place.

Repairing your winter boat cover For a quick turn around on your Fairclough cover or boomtent system, please bring your cover in as soon as it’s removed from the boat. (April- June) Due to the amount of covers made in the fall, Boat cover repairs are not accepted after Oct.1 Note: Repaired covers must be picked up or arrangements made for shipping 30 days after billing to avoid $50.00 a month storage fees.

New cover repairs & alterations When receiving your new cover you should save the box it was shipped in. Use this box to ship the cover back. Use UPS shipping for the cover.

Alterations of new covers should be discussed with a Fairclough representative. Note: During the busy season, we are not able to make scheduled appointments with customers on installed jobs.

Sailboat Winter Cover-Boom Tent Style

Kinder Industries winter covers are fabricated to last longer than anything else on the market.  Made with the most durable fabrics, thread and construction techniques, this cover will protect your investment better than any alternative, at a price point that provides a better value than shrinkwrapping every year.  The environmental benefits are just the icing on the cake.

Description

The Kinder Industries boom tent-style winter cover provides an excellent combination of durability, coverage and affordability for your sailing vessel.  By using the boom as the support frame, snow and rain are shed easily.  A line from the gooseneck to headstay keeps the cover taut over the foredeck.  The cover includes at least six vents to eliminate mold and mildew, a zippered access door and ample reinforcement at all wear points.  This cover is built to last!  Fabricated with non-abrasive Boat shrunk Canvas, which shrinks 5% to ensure a no-flapping fit.  Available with and without toe rail skirt.

Very pleased with product, service, and cost

boom tent Great product.

Posted by Unknown on 19th Dec 2022

I got the 6' x 9.5' for my 21' boat. I got the UV resistant material I had it up while i was working on the cockpit and what a difference. I was cool and relaxed usually the sun beats down on me and gives me a headache even with a cap and screen. this time I had no cap and was great. The material, stitching, and grommets are top notch. There are grommets all the way around so you can switch the L and W to better suite you needs.

Exactly What I Needed

Posted by John Harkness S/V Moondance on 6th Dec 2021

I ordered the large boom tent for my C&C 110 to help keep my dodger and cockpit area clean and dry. I just cannot bring myself to put a plastic tarp on my boat! Lee Sail Covers delivered the boom tent very quickly (in a time when everything is backed up) and it was exactly what I needed. The quality exceeded my expectations. I would recommend Lee Sail Covers to anyone looking for canvass for their boats. Thank You Lee Sail Covers!!

Posted by Matt Schuckmann on 15th Oct 2021

World Renowned Reputation - The UK's Premier Boat Cover Maker

WORLD RENOWNED REPUTATION THE UK’S PREMIER BOAT COVER MAKER

Tecsew Boom Tents are an effective way of offering Cockpit protection when in the harbour. Our Boom Tents can be bespoke or more conventional designs.

Windows (perhaps with blinds and access zips) can be incorporated to increase the functionality of your Boom Tent.

The rear can be left open, or closed. It can extend to cover the back of the  Sprayhood , the hatch or all the way forward to the mast.

If your Boom does not extend far enough back into the Cockpit, we can design your Tent to extend further aft to the backstay, or a line tied between twin backstays.

If you have a  Stackpack , we can usually develop a design that secures either under the Boom or alternatively, zips to the sides.

If you do not find inspiration from the pictures below, then please look at our  Deck Covers  for more ideas. These can fully cover the decks and because they are usually manufactured in three zip together sections, the middle and aft section can be used independently as a Boom Tent.

Strong grommets are placed into the reinforced edge tabling and securing lines are inserted at all main points to enable the cover to be fully secured for those winter months.

Long-Lasting Boom Tent Material

Superior  Sunbrella Plus  fabrics are used as standard together with colour coordinated YKK coil no 10 zips, ensuring a first-class product branded with our discreet logo.

Tecsew Boom Tents come in a wide variety of colours and specifications to suit both your personal preference and boat features. We take pride in ensuring accurate production to come up with reliable and functional boat canvas and accessories.

Nearly all standard designs are available for self-fitting and we export to Europe, Scandinavia and the Far East.

Our Original Boom-Tent Sailboat Winter Cover

As one of the premiere designers of the Boom Tent Sailboat Winter Cover we have spent a great deal of time upgrading and perfecting our present-day product. We protect your sailboat, its precious wood toe rail, and the Awlgrip / Painted Hull, or teak decks from the elements be it tropical UV damage to harsh snow & ice accumulation and wind. Protect your investment with a custom made winter cover.

About our Sailboat Winter Covers

In brief, Leon Canvas Inc is designed for mast-up winter storage. It can either cover your sailboat down from the boom to inside the toe rail OR over the toe rail by 6-8 inches. Based on your geographic location and how you winter your boat (in water or on land) we have the perfect solution for you.

We use nothing but the best and toughest materials. We use "Top Gun" fabric, a marine-grade polyester woven fabric with a rubberized finish. This fabric is entirely water resistant but our cover design is NOT air-tight so the shrink-wrap-moldy-swamp-effect come spring-time is not an issue.

For ease of installation, this cover comes in 3 sections. The forward section gets securely tied to the bow and terminates at the mast creating the perfect pitch for liquids to sheer right off. The "Mid-Section" has a mast collar not unlike a main sail cover. This middle section extends to and terminates somewhere mid-boom where the zippers align with your life line gates for easy access port and starboard. Additionally, in the third and aft section, we provide a stern access zipper from topping lift to transom for easy aft entry. Whether you just cover your boat to inside the toe rail or over, we have collared cutouts for all your boat's shrouds, and stays. Every cover is a custom-made cover and we will work with you to accommodate your boat's variances be it davits, radar poles or ladders etc.

Thousands Of Russian Troops In Kursk Likely Trapped By Blown Bridges

By Howard Altman

Posted on Aug 20, 2024 5:55 PM EDT

11 minute read

Ukrainian MoD

Thousands of Russian troops are bogged down on the south side of the Seim River in Russia’s Kursk Oblast because Ukraine blew up the three bridges crossing it , a source with direct knowledge of the situation told The War Zone on Tuesday, the 15th day of the invasion.

“There are about 3,000 Russian troops there,” the source said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss operational details. The Russians have little room to maneuver because the Seim River snakes around that part of Kursk Oblast to the Ukrainian border and Ukrainian troops are pushing to the west toward Glushkovo. As we mentioned yesterday , it is part of an effort to create a border buffer zone.

“They will not fight,” the source said of the Russian forces there outside of the border village of Tetkino. “Most of them are inexperienced and demotivated.”

Ukraine is also attempting to push eastward through that part of Kursk by taking Tetkino, the source added. The goal is to trap Russian troops in a pincer. Though under constant bombardment, Tetkino remains in Russian hands.

His estimate on Russian troop levels there aligns with earlier reporting by Germany’s Bild news outlet on Telegram Tuesday .

Ukrainian troops “are 5 km away from the Seim River and the cauldron closure,” Bild wrote. “According to Ukrainian data, between 2,000 and 3,000 Russian soldiers remain inside the cauldron.”

“The state border between Russia and Ukraine in the south and west of the cauldron is prepared for defense,” BILD open data analysis expert Julian Röpke explained. “But it will be difficult for the Russians to defend themselves if the Ukrainian Armed Forces attack from the east. In addition, in the west, the Ukrainians have already crossed the border and taken control of a small area of ​​Russian territory of 15 square kilometers up to the Seim River. The Otruba farm is located there.”

Russian forces “now have a simple choice: either fight and defend this territory or retreat,” Röpke added. “Apparently, both options are fatal for them. But it must be said frankly that this battle is not decisive. Because we do not know how much strength Ukraine has left.”

Retreating forces could conceivably try to cross by boat or swim, but they would have to leave behind their vehicles and equipment. In addition, they would be doing so without cover, in small numbers, and under threat of attacks by Ukrainian aviation, artillery and drones.

Yesterday, we wrote about how Ukraine is playing whack-a-mole with pontoon bridges Russia is building over the Seim River to avoid encirclement after Ukraine blew up the existing spans. Today, visual evidence emerged in the form of drone video showing Ukraine targeting those make-shift crossings.

Kursk, day 15 As expected, Ukrainians targeted the pontoons across the Seym river with FPV drones It was an obvious area of interest for the birds because Ukrainians knew Russian logistics had to go through it. A bunch of ammo got destroyed, the Russians ammo starved pic.twitter.com/aRxH5mToyS — PS01 △ (@PStyle0ne1) August 20, 2024

Russia, meanwhile, continues to build pontoon bridges.

The Russian Defense Ministry (MoD) has yet to comment on the Seim River situation but continues to claim it is pushing back Ukrainian advances in Kursk.

“Units of the Sever Group of Forces supported by Army Aviation and artillery thwarted the attempts of the enemy’s assault detachments to launch attacks near Borki, Korenevo, Kremyanoye, and Russkaya Kanapelka,” it claimed Tuesday on Telegram . “The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation continue reconnaissance and search operations to locate and eliminate the enemy’s small sabotage and reconnaissance groups in forest belts attempting to get to the depth of the Russian territory.”

Army Aviation, artillery, and ground troops “inflicted losses on manpower and hardware clusters of the AFU 22nd, 115th Mechanized brigades, 80th, and 82nd Air Assault Brigades near Apanasovka, Borki, Viktorovka, Kositsa, Lyubimovka, Plekhovo, Tolsty Lug, and west of Bogdanovka.”

To better handle the invasion, Russia is creating new battle groups.

“The Russian Defense Ministry announced the creation of three new troop groups – “Belgorod,” “Bryansk,” and “Kursk,” the independent, U.S.-funded Ukrainian Radio Liberty news outlet reported on Tuesday . “The new groups were created after the successful offensive of the Ukrainian army in the Russian Kursk region. Border raids took place in both the Bryansk and Belgorod regions.”

Previously, separate troop groups of the Russian army operated only in the territory of Ukraine, the outlet explained.

“The actions of the army groups will be managed by the Coordination Council for Military Security of Border Territories, the launch of which was announced on Tuesday by Defense Minister Andrei Belousov,” Radio Liberty wrote. “It includes deputy ministers, regional leaders, and representatives of the General Staff. It must meet at least once a week.”

😳 Russian MoD announced the creation of the "Belgorod", "Bryansk" and "Kursk" military groups. — MAKS 24 🇺🇦👀 (@Maks_NAFO_FELLA) August 20, 2024

Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered his troops to retake Kursk by Oct. 1 while not withdrawing from key areas in Donbas, the RBC – Ukraine news outlet reported .

The job of recapturing Kursk should not involve “withdrawing forces” from key areas where Russia is conducting an offensive in Donbas. “This primarily concerns from the Pokrovsk and Toretsk directions. Currently, the occupiers’ offensive in these directions has not slowed down – instead, it has only intensified.”

The Russians are now trying to deploy a “mix” of units to the Kursk region from all fronts except Pokrovsk and Toretsk, the publication added. “This, in turn, indicates that the enemy currently has very few ‘free’ forces and reserves. Secondly, it shows that the limited successes in Pokrovsk and Toretsk weigh more on the Kremlin’s scales than regaining control over the Kursk region.”

🥴 Putin gave the order to push AFU out of the Kursk region by October 1, – RBC ❗️Moreover, this must be done in such a way as not to remove forces from key areas where Russia is conducting an offensive in Pokrovsk and Toretsk directions. — MAKS 24 🇺🇦👀 (@Maks_NAFO_FELLA) August 20, 2024

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky offered further insights into his goals for the Kursk invasion.

“This operation has become our largest investment in the process of liberating Ukrainians from Russian captivity – we have already captured the largest number of Russian prisoners in a single operation, and this is a significant result, this is one of our goals, and our actions,” he said in a speech during the Meeting of Heads of Ukraine’s Foreign Diplomatic Missions. “At present, the Russian border area opposite our Sumy region has been mostly cleared of Russian military presence. And this is also one of our operation’s goals, tactical goals.”

“As of today, our forces control over 1,250 square kilometers of the enemy’s territory and 92 settlements,” he claimed. “The strengthening of our positions, the stabilization of designated areas, and the replenishment of the exchange fund for Ukraine are ongoing. In general, And of course, we cannot yet speak publicly about the units involved in the designated areas of the Kursk region.”

Zelensky also chided the international community for worrying about threats from Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“Just a few months ago, many people around the world, if they had heard that we were planning such an operation like the one in the Kursk region, would have said that it was impossible and that it would cross the strictest of all the red lines that Russia has,” he explained.

Once again, he beseeched his international supporters for permission to use donated long-range weapons inside Russia.

“If our partners lifted all the current restrictions on the use of weapons on Russian territory, we would not need to physically enter particularly the Kursk region to protect our Ukrainian citizens in the border communities and eliminate Russia’s potential for aggression,” he said.

As Russian troops press closer to Pokrovsk and Toretsk, a controversial member of the Ukrainian parliament’s National Security, Defense and Intelligence Committee blasted what she said is the government’s decision to leave Donetsk Oblast vulnerable.

“We had a rather successful meeting of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine today, but I can’t think about anything else, except what is happening in the Donetsk region,” Mariana Bezuhla said Tuesday on Telegram . “Our units are withdrawn from there, leaving entire front lines to their own devices, ammunition is not added, the Russians pass through empty fortifications.”

As a result, “the occupation of Pokrovsk is a matter of the near future, and Toretsk is ending its last days. It looks as if we are handing over the Donetsk region, the theater of hostilities for the 11th year of the war, the land on which thousands of Ukrainians laid down their lives for Ukraine. But after Pokrovsk, there is a direct road to Pavlograd, where there are no fortifications at all, and then there is the Dnipro. Behind Toretsk is the Kramatorsk agglomeration, and then Kharkiv oblast.”

“I’m in a state of shock, sorry,” she added. “Syrsky brings the war to some new level of maneuvers of the Second World War, where the bets are on the loss or acquisition of entire regions, but what is the price and what are the prospects? I am sure that he does not have clear answers either. A game of ‘miss or miss.’ The surprises are not over. The maneuvers of the Ukrainian Zhukov continue.”

Bezuhla gained notoriety earlier this year for quitting Zelensky’s Servant of the People Party and constant criticism of former Ukrainian Armed Forces commander-in-chief Valeri Zaluzhyi, according to a profile in the Ukrainian Babel news outlet .

A Ukrainian brigade commander provided an assessment of the situation that matched Bezhula’s.

“One Ukrainian artillery brigade commander in eastern Ukraine t old the Financial Times that part of the reason for the Russian advance was Kyiv moving its scarce resources north,” the publication reported. “His troops were back to rationing shells for their canons — the first time since U.S. aid to Ukraine was held up by Congress — because ammunition had been reallocated for the incursion into Russia’s Kursk region.”

Some Russian milbloggers are suggesting that as Moscow is moving troops to defend Kursk, Ukraine is preparing to launch a new counteroffensive in Zaporizhizhia Oblast.

“Having waited for the transfer of our forces to the Kursk direction, the Ukrainian Armed Forces began an offensive in the area,” the Romanov Light Telegram channel stated on Tuesday.”

It then took a swipe at Valery Gerasimov, chief of staff of the Russian Army.

“Gerasimov, are you sleeping?” Romanov chided. 

Boris Rozhin, writing under the Colonelcassad Telegram channel , surmised that Ukraine is preparing to attack the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant , which Russia has held since the early days of the full-on war.

“In addition to active operations in the Kursk region and potential auxiliary strikes on the border of the Belgorod and Bryansk regions, the enemy is taking certain measures to concentrate forces for a potential strike on the Zaporizhzhya NPP,” Rozhin wrote. “The strike may be a combined operation.”

According to Romanov and other Russian sources, Ukrainian forces have started offensive operations and became more active in Zaporizhzia near Polohy. Waiting for further confirmation. New thread in the making? 😮‍💨 pic.twitter.com/a7PDEv4YZ6 — NOELREPORTS 🇪🇺 🇺🇦 (@NOELreports) August 20, 2024

Ukrainian troops are still about 20 miles southwest of the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant in Kurchatov, and officials in Kyiv say they have no plans on capturing it . But that does not appear to be stopping Russian troops from digging trenches there. A review of imagery from Aug. 19 provided by Planet Labs aligns with what is depicted in the photo below.

A massive fire at a Russian oil depot in Proletarsk, Rostov region, has grown significantly, now covering 10,000 square meters (107,640 square feet), Proletarsk’s district head Valery Gornich told the state-run TASS news agency , adding that 520 firefighters and four aircraft were deployed to contain the blaze.

The fire broke out early Sunday after Russian air defense systems shot down Ukrainian drones in the town of Proletarsk, according to the Moscow Times. Ukraine’s military said that its drones targeted the Kavkaz oil and petroleum storage facility.

“This is how, step by step, the war enters the enemy’s territory,” Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereschuck said Tuesday on Telegram . “This is the Rostov region of the Russian Federation.”

Russian authorities struggled Tuesday to put out a massive fire in the southern Rostov region for a third consecutive day.

It turns out that a Russian unit bragging about downing a Ukraining drone was mistaken. The drone instead reportedly was a Russian Zala surveillance drone.

“The guys are awesome!” the Russian Military Hub Telegram channel said sarcastically . “Not only did they lose their copter, but they also shot down our FOOL, oh, excuse me, our ZALA. I would call this act ‘Imbecility and Courage.’ But it’s better to just say: Imbecility.”
