Has anyone had to replace a zipper on the mooring cover? I have one of the pockets for my ratchet strap where the zipper broke. What did you replace it with (size and open or closed end)? I have a 2014 121x with the stock black mooring cover. The attached picture is of the one that isn’t broken. TIA

@zipper get off the mooring cover, you might break it.
it is a pain in the butt but you could always take it to a seamstress or something they could probably tell you in one second.

Your title and @Liveto99 called me out...Take it to a local canvas shop or someone with a sewing machine to replace the broken zipper as this vinyl should not require a machine that can sew thru 8 layers of Sunbrella. Many sources on line for zippers. We shop here frequently.
