I have a sewing machine (Pfaff Tipmatic 1119) on board since 2017 and it was used so rarely that I would need to learn to handle it every time I take it out.
Shade Canopy (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07S85Z6B6/) is great and cheap, but it does cover sides for navigation so needs to be removed. And it leaks when raining and splashes the water under dodger and some inside.
As I was waiting for some packages to arrive to Golfito it was time to go on adventure.

The result is far away from professional and the lines are far far away from straight. But hopefully it will protect me during hot and sunny days just for now :)

Looks weird? I know, but the shade inside is worth more than anything else...
