I was thinking of picking up the standard EQ6 Pier, and setting it up in the yard and leaving the EQ6Pro setup on it.
What would be the best way to cover it/protect it from the elements without building a permanent structure?

One mate suggested an outboard motor cover, any other suggestions?

Hi Peter,

It's part of my business making covers for various items, camper trailer covers, canopies and the like.
I would think about a custom cover, made from light weight PVC. It needs to be lined with a soft fabric and have two vents in the cover top and bottom.
I would also consider getting moisture absorbing crystals from the local hadrware shop tp place under the cover.
Are you setting up on concrete or grass?
If on grass I would also consider a ground sheet under the mount.

Not trying to sell you anything, but if you like I can supply information on materials you will need to make it, and a plan of the vent system so you can get made locally.

Cheers.

Justin.
