Need help finding...

Last night I was out fishing and I left the cover for my Lowrance (LCX-28c HD) on the front deck of my boat. Got going on the lake and hammered down and all of a sudden a white object wized by my head and I realized I forgot to pick up my graph cover off the front deck of the boat. thought it might float, but sank. Lowrance no longer makes the LCX-28 model... but I was wondering if anyone knew where to get a cover or had any ideas. I checked cabelas but not good reviews on the neoprene covers that they offer.

Thoughts???

Thanks

Hiya -

For years, I've called those white Lowrance screen covers 'blow-off covers.' One of the ones I have has lasted a good 5 years, which is about 4.5 years longer than any other I've had.

Best cover I've found? Take a towel, have someone sew it into the right size to make a cover that slips over the top, then take an elastic women's headband and sew it to the side to hold it to the unit. Cover goes on, then pull the headband around the unit and the towel. Won't blow off, and costs about $2.

yep. buy a new unit and donate your other one to me. i dont mind that it doesn't have a cover. Seriously though. Rk's idea sounds good. or find something that has a cinch cord on it that fits, like hoods have. You could also make one out of aluminum or something. I'm thinking if you got me good dimensions of the height width and depth. I could maybe make up a 4 sided pan to slide on from the front. weld some threaded studs to the side and make a U bracket to bolt on the back with wing nuts on both sides. line the inside of the pan with some sticky backed smooth stuff to avoid scratching the units plastic. Just a thought. How much are you willing to spend. I could probably make something given a good set of dimensions and pictures of the unit from all sides for around 30-40 bucks. I could ship or meet you in the north metro. just a thought
