    Sparky - What size tarp did you buy for your trailer?

    I want to say it's a 6'x8' piece of canvas.

    Purchased a couple of 6x8 canvas tarps on eBay yesterday for $12.50 each. They are supposed to be the 12 oz. type and olive drab. I'll have to wait and see about the quality. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find anything in town.

    I just received the canvas tarps that were purchased on eBay. The nominal 6x8 is definitely the right size and the olive drab is the right color choice for my stock CDN M101. I was a little disappointed that there's a seam down the middle bit it should be OK.

    IIRC the Beachwood Canvas versions had the seam as well.

    Huh, mine has no seam.

    I couldn't find anything on the company online.

    I don't know the harm in the seam other than aesthetics. No freezing conditions here for ice to build up. My preference would still be for no seam but maybe that's why I only paid $12.50 each for them.

    Mine was about $18.00 I recon.

    The bows and waterproofing make it shed water nicely. :)
