I'm planning on buying new powers cords for the boat and wanted to get a sunbrella (or similar material) cover for the cords. I thought this would be an easy item to obtain but I was wrong. I checked online and also with 2 local canvas shops but no luck. Has anyone come across a cord cover for 2 50' power cords
Thanks

John,
I made one a couple of years ago and it’s helped to keep the cable in very good condition. I remember seeing a zipped cover available at the time but it doesn’t pop up now. This may work also

I’ve never seen a premade sunbrella cord cover. There is Sailrite if you want to purchase a smallish machine capable of sewing heavier material and DIY.
I would suggest using cord wrap. It is a black monofilament tubing. (They have other colors) woven tube that you can scrunch up to feed and fit the ends over then stretch back out to length and small diameter. Cord-mate is one brand from Techflex manufacturer. Wirecare is where I found it. Use hook and loop cord ties if you want to hang the cord.

I used the corrugated wire loam as a cover which has been effective and inexpensive. I like the wire cover referenced below. Either achieves the goal.
