My boat had the one from the West Marine catalog...$400 and a piece of junk...we finally used it to make plugs for the screw holes in the teak deck. We now have a lovely one made in Cartagena but with US labor rates a garden catalog and some homespun carpentry might work.

Nice idea but I have no place to build, no shop, no power tools, etc. But thanks.
I found a guy online who handmade one for me to my specs. It was about 24 by 36 when fully opened. When folded up it has nice fiddle rails. I think he charged 225. Let me know if you want me to get his contact info. He's in Troup, TX.
