3.0 out of 5 stars
Works great while it lasts,
This review is from: Marinco ZIP-01 Zipsleeve Electrical Shore Power Cord Cover (50-Amp or 30-Amp Cordsets, Black) (Sports)
I have used this for the past 7 months in South Florida. I like the neat, clean look of carrying all of my cords inside and have the velcro carrying it across on one of the docklines. Problem is, it's not cheap and now after 7 months it has completely deteriorated to the point where it is split in many areas and has to be replaced. I will probably pony up another $50 for another but wish there was a longer-lasting product or a lower price point.

Very nice, not very durable,
This review is from: Marinco ZIP-01 Zipsleeve Electrical Shore Power Cord Cover (50-Amp or 30-Amp Cordsets, Black) (Sports)
I really liked the clean, first class look of my new Marinco Zip cover when it arrived. Our boat is under cover and having the cords nicely shielded made the area absolutely "ship shape". The problem is that it isn't very well built...for a $50 piece of nylon. We take the boat out about 30 times a year...and in about nine months the Velcro ends were clearly beginning to fray, and the teeth from the fairly light duty zippers were coming off (and this is NOT exposed to direct sunlight). Eighteen months later-and its junk. Probably twenty percent of the teeth have pulled out from normal use (for us, normal use is simply pushing the twin power cords with the Zip cover back in the storage bay). I think its up to you...if you want to look GREAT as long as you don't use it at all, or GREAT for a short time...this is the product. In boat dollars, it really is a rounding error, but I'm thinking that two 12' high end nylon zippers on 24' of nylon with some velcro attachment strips could be done a bit better at this price point, or sell it cheaper and designate it as a short life cycle accessory. It does look really really good though for as long as it holds together...and I think it ought to be good for a year of covered use or a season of salt and sun.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Marinco ZIP-01 Zipsleeve Electrical Shore Power Cord Cover (50-Amp or 30-Amp Cordsets, Black) (Sports)
I ordered the Zip sleeve, listed as only one color (black). I have used the Zip sleeve before, great for combining power cord / tv cable, although the only drawback is that they consistantly fade and deteriorate in just 2 boating seasons. Much to my surprise when the new zip sleeve arrived it was BLUE (#Zip-02), now actually I think the blue might have a better chance of making it beyond 2 boating seasons, so since I use 2 zip sleeves on my power cord I went back not to return the blue one but to order another. Surprise again, only black is listed. I have contacted Amazon and they are working on what happened and how I can get another blue one because it is STILL listed in only one color - BLACK.
