Above-the-Fold 15 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 So this is not quite as high-tech as some questions ... but does anyone in the Auckland area make fitted sheets for v-berths and quarter-berths? MS Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Battgirl 23 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 I use the Arctic sheets from the Warehouse bought a size bigger to get lots of tuck around the edges. If you know someone who is good at sewing, has a decent machine, you could buy some sheets and get them altered where needed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not helpful but mildly amusing. It's actually an old newspaper expression; the family thought it was better than "Deadline". Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd rather hire it done. I'm surprised that, with all the boating-related industries in New Zealand, no one does this (or at least is not known to do this by members of crew.org (who (we know) know all)).

Jeez I came across someone recently in Auck but I can’t for the life of me remember who.... if it comes back to me I’ll let you know. I could do with a second set of bedding myself.

Fish 0 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 There has been some ads in the classified section of the Boating NZ magazine. I haven't paid attention to them, as the missus is in charge of the soft furnishing stuff. But that would be a good starting place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Appearenlty it's now worth gazillions. Did the jouno angle work to get you back in time to catch the end of summer? "Airstream" caravans out of the States. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
