Pulling Down Fabric Blinds Over Louvered Window Handles...

[jdsuowner]

Hello,

We just purchased a Cikira Classic Cruiser 18FB and love it. Great craftmanship and weight.

We had a question about the louvered windows in it in relation to the adjustable soft blinds. When we want to pulldown the blinds they dont get all the way down because the star shaped handle for the windows sticks too far out. With some force we can pull the blinds over it but getting it back up feels like it is going to tear the fabric blinds. Is there something that is configured wrong with the blinds were they designed not to be pulled over the blind lever all the way down? Just wondering if anyone else had this issue maybe with another model or brand too?

Thanks alot

Mine is the same way...so it's either risk tearing up the blind vs. lack-of-privacy -and-sun-erosion......not a good design...only answer I could think of was to apply a dark tape to the lower inside windows (only 2" wide), so that the bottom crack would be blocked....
