Which strap/bungee for hds12 covers?

[78Staff]

a 12" balll bungee will work on 12" HDS.

Thanks, yep I just ordered a doz from the River... velcro is eating up my cover :(.

what size graphs are you using them on?

I use them on my 12" graphs, and there is plenty of overlap to secure the covers down. They would be too long for anything smaller than a 12".

I had the BoatXFX ones, but lost a cover recently - posted this in the other cover strap thread. They stretch quite a bit, and I guess allowed a corner to lift and after that she went flying. I'm back to using velcro straps, same ones fisheye posted - the 1x30 works great on 12" units.

I've never been a fan of any type of bungee cords. I'm a retired ophthalmologist and have seen too many serious eye injuries from them. Just my opinion, but if your'e going to use them, I would suggest wearing a pair of polycarbonate glasses.

The bungees work, but stretch over time and have to be cut and adjusted or just replaced. My partner has them on his.

The bungees come in a bag, so plenty of extras.
