ABSTRACT:
In a watercraft such as a sailboat, wherein a boom is pivotally mounted to a mast and extends aft over an open cockpit, a plurality of fittings are mounted to the port and the starboard sides of the boom in a spaced apart manner. Elongate spreader members are removably carried by such fittings and they extend laterally outward over the open cockpit, terminating above the port and starboard sides of the cockpit. Flexible membranes are supported on the spreaders and flexible screening depends from the outboard edges of the membranes in such a manner that the screening surrounds the cockpit and the lower edge of the screening is held in place against the hull structure of said watercraft.
