Leather is costly. I rewrapped the top half of my wheel with bike handle
bar wrap. Creates a nice soft and warm feel. Weathers well and costs $20.
Infinite colour choices. Easy to apply/remove. I picked one that looks like
cork. It seems to last about 2-3 years

I bought some leather pieces from OA Leather.
Bought some cheap leather working tools on Amazon for punching holes and
did it myself.
I think the total cost was around $80 and looks as good as the Edson
version.
Probably one of the most satisfying things I have done to the boat since I
owned it :-
How about a nice French Spiral wrap?

HI Chuck
Installed the Edson version on my 40” wheel about 20 years ago. Held up well
and finally deteriorated so replaced last year with Edson. I believe theirs is
elk hide?? Very satisfying winter indoor project

My wife and I did ours last winter with the boat leather.com version with the
foam. It was much easier as a two person job, but took us a while. We would
do about 2 feet of stitching each day and then got tired of it and would pick
it up in a day or two so the project stretched out over a few
Boat;leather was great for me. Nice winter task.

Don’t forget the double sided tape to keep cover aligned. I did and it is a
