Howdy all,
I'm chasing a centreboard case deck cover(correct name for this is..?) that I can take a pattern off for my restoration of my newly adopted IMCO OD.
Anyone got a spare or one I can measure up and photograph..or better still has anyone done the exercise before and still got templates?!
Cheers!! ![]()
Send me a photo of the piece you mean and I can possibly do one from mine (early-mid 1990s model).

I have replaced one on an Equipe which I might still have. Basically on that it's just a piece of sail cloth that tappers towards the back of the case making it higher at the front and lower at the back (where it is almost flat). Do you have the plastic edging still attached to the board? IF so it just screws done on each side under that. I used the mast sleeve off an old NP wave sail (the black padded part at the base) and just cut that to fit. .. and it looked pretty good and was a bit more solid (than the old one). One thing though, don't get too greedy towards the front. I made it too long (past the most forward screw) because I thought it would work better but it stopped the centreboard from staying in its fully up position.
