Does anyone know where to find a replacement for the bag that hangs under the hardtop on a 282 Sailfish? My zipper broke and the grommets are not looking to good.

Other than Googling for it myself, I do not. HOWEVER, any local upholsterer can sew in a new zipper and most likely even replace the grommets. Or, grommets/grommet tool... not that expensive to buy and it's a good tool to have.

I replaced grommets...easy...but get quality BRASS grommets from Taylor not brass colored steel grommets from Harbor Freight
. That way you don't have to do it again by the end of one season
My sister sewed in a new zipper.

I had mine replaced by a local shop wen I replaced the enclosure. The shop did it in off white to match the new enclosure.

Just another suggestion... I had several boats with canvas storage space for under the T Tops for storing life jackets, but unfortunately I had issues with mold inside the canvas storage space and on the life jackets. So I came up with the idea of using a net type storage concept that always allowed air not to be trapped. It's been working out very well. They are cargo nets used inside the back of SUV's, I found them on Amazon and they were very reasonably priced. I used plastic zip ties to install it and it worked very well.
Thanks for the replies, I’ll try to get this one fixed but if it’s not going to work I’ll order from A&J.
