canvas bed flies for jayco dove


hi guys
i want/need any info that you very wise people can give me on canvas  bed flies for our dear old dove. have searched the web and all i can find are the baged variety. i was thinking more of the type on a sail track (think thats  what its called) and must be canvas so that the canvas under it stays dry for packing up. any info would be greatly appreciated

You may have to get the flies especially made, check with a canvas/tarp/tent maker in your area.

Caravan accessory shops would likely supply the sail track.

My rig doesn't have pull-out beds so it's not an issue for me

Agree with Jimricho plus look at Caravan Awning makers.

We had the unbagged Bed Flys on our Goldstream Link which were made by Goldstream. Ours were made of Vinyl and had shadecloth type sidewalls.

They were great and very easy for one person to slide into the sail track before winding up the camper and to pack up before moving on. Soon learnt how to pack up the camper in the pouring rain without getting the canvas bed ends wet. They also keep the camper that bit cooler in summer.

Watched a number of people with the bagged Flys and packing up seemed to be more difficult than what we experienced. However they did not have find somewhere to then store their Flys.

Would think that the vinyl Flys would be less weight than canvas Flys.
