Nick 2 years ago we left Brunswick Georgia in January it was 30 degrees F we had the full winter enclosure and for 4 days were in 30+knots the enclosure worked great and when it warmed some we rolled up the side panels and kept on going.  I loved it 👍🏻

Hello fellow Amel owners,

On Amelia I have the curtain that zips to the aft end of the spray hood that keeps the front half of the cockpit dry. It works very well and allows easy access to the winches and to look at the sails whilst actually sailing. The watch keeper is also kept dry even when running downwind.<IMG_0988.jpeg>

Please see the attached photo.

I am considering getting the whole winter cockpit room made, obviously this would be great whilst in port or at anchor. My question is; how well does it work when actually sailing?
