Good and cheap, disregarded yachting sails work real good for any tarping,
Most of the time they come for free.

I'm considering keeping my boat on the trailer this summer for ease of use
- hopefully I'll paddle more that way!.  Wondering about a sun cover for
it.  I'd hate to use one of those dreadfully ugly cheap blue or green
plastic tarps but....will these protect my boat (plastic) from UV / heat
damage?  How about 8 oz canvas - light colored?   Local home center has
canvas drop cloths that are 4 x 15 - would need two to get the needed
length but would be inexpensive.  I don't care if it stays dry - just have
to keep the sun off.
