Added Side Skirt to Cover on R4

In the summer my new R4 will be up on a lift getting pretty direct sun. I had a someone make a side skirt that zips on to the OEM mooring cover. This ways the sides of the boat will not get hammered with the sun.
I think it turned out pretty good.

Looks nice. How easy will it be to put on while on the lift?

Why not a canopy for your lift?

Totally fair question on the canopy cover. although I know it would protect the boat… I like being able to sit on the dock or in the boat and have an unobstructed view

Thanks. I'm going to go see it in person tomorrow and I'll get some better pictures.
I need to spend some timing figuring out how I....
1) Install this when and if I'm alone.
2) Best process to install. As of now I'm thinking I have to first put on the main cover. Then zip in the skirt and as I zip put the skit up and over the top of the boat. Then when does, lift the boat and then pull the skirt down.
I'm sure I'll figure something out.
